Feu follet

What Feu follet does

Feu follet is a Quebec-based creative agency operating as a Société en nom collectif (S.E.N.C.) under the legal name Feu follet S.E.N.C., headquartered at 171 rue Laurier in Val-d'Or, Quebec. The firm describes itself as a web, design, and communications agency and provides an integrated suite of services that includes graphic design (visual identity, logos, branding, packaging, illustration), web design and development (custom sites, e-commerce builds such as the Les Bois de la colline store), marketing communications (campaigns, copywriting, content strategy), social media management, hosting, and professional training. Itself a website-self-hosted business ('Fièrement conçu et hébergé par nous-mêmes'), it positions the design + web stack as a single integrated offering rather than as discrete modules.

The customer base is concentrated in Quebec's Abitibi-Témiscamingue region and spans three core segments: small and medium regional businesses (e.g., Monsieur Vaillant, Ekorce kombucha, La Semence), cultural OBNLs and festivals (FCIAT, FRIMAT, Minwashin, Les Journées de la culture), and municipal/government clients (Ville de Rouyn-Noranda, Ville de Ville-Marie). Go-to-market is sales-led and direct — inquiries arrive via the website contact form, supplemented by an active blog, five social media channels (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest), and speaking or training engagements at regional industry events. Pricing is quote-based per project and not publicly disclosed.

The firm is founder-operated with a publicly disclosed team of two: Staifany Gonthier leads communications and also serves as data protection officer (consistent with Quebec's Loi 25 compliance posture), while Jonathan Fournier leads the web team. No external investors, parent company, acquisitions, mergers, funding rounds, patents, awards, or formal partnerships are disclosed in available sources. Headcount is reported in the 1–10 range with no underlying growth or contraction metrics; no revenue figures are disclosed.
