What cholet tp does

Cholet TP is a French public works contractor headquartered in ZAC de l'Ecuyère, Cholet (Maine-et-Loire), operating as a subsidiary of Groupe NIVET (SA CARRIERES NIVET). Founded over 60 years ago, the company provides an integrated range of infrastructure construction services — including earthworks (terrassement), road surface coatings (enrobés, enduits superficiels), sanitation networks (assainissement), urban development (aménagements urbains), utility networks (réseaux divers), and engineering design (bureau d'étude) — to public sector clients (communes, departmental authorities, state services) and private sector clients (industrial platforms, commercial zones, individual homeowners) within a 50-kilometer operational radius across the Maine-et-Loire, Deux-Sèvres, and Vendée departments.

The company operates a vertically integrated technology footprint. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Produit Routier du Choletais (PRC), runs an asphalt mixing plant at La Roche Atard (Le Puy-Saint-Bonnet), producing standard and colored road surface materials in-house. The earthmoving fleet is equipped with GPS guidance systems for precision terrain shaping, and an in-house laboratory validates material quality on construction outputs. A free concrete and demolition-material recycling service complements the core construction activity. With 98 employees across direction, administration, equipment, and works teams, the company completes roughly 360 projects per year and reported €18 million in revenue for FY2025.

Revenue is generated through project-based contracts awarded via direct enterprise field sales. The client mix is approximately 53% public sector (communes 45%, Département d'Anjou 7%, state ministries 1%) and 40% private sector (industrials, commercial, residential). Pricing is quote-based with free on-site technical consultation, and reduced VAT applies for renovation work on properties older than two years. Go-to-market is local and relationship-driven — leveraging 60+ years of regional presence, a project portfolio website, and direct phone/contact-form inquiries — rather than broad digital or outbound marketing channels.
