105 agency delivered!
In order to enhance proximity with its clients, Credit Agricole Atlantique Vendee has decided to innovate through a new agency concept called “Horizon.” The regional bank chose the Elemen Group to assist in the development and realization of furniture for its test agencies.
For this innovative project, CAAV benefited from the technical expertise of our teams. The agencies incorporate a digital dimension and offer personalized services based on the client’s needs in specialized, comfortable, and friendly spaces.
We effectively contributed to the creation of a colourful range of custom-made furniture that structures the space. Our technical team’s skills allowed us to adapt the concept to any agency configuration. Since late 2014, the Elemen Group has been involved in developing prototypes and launching test agencies at the Nantes (44) and Aizenay (85) locations. 105 agencies delivered to date!
We are currently collaborating on a new concept of fabric panels by recycling and enhancing the current panels.
Testimonial
“When I chose Elemen*, my need was to find a company capable of accompanying us on a new agency concept. I knew that this company could work with us in partnership and define our needs simultaneously. We quickly started with a pilot agency, which allowed us to learn all the lessons regarding assemblies and furniture. Later on, we launched on a larger scale. We worked on logistics, how to deploy this concept. Two years after the deployment, we were able to optimize assemblies, furniture, and costs so that both Credit Agricole and Elemen* benefited.”
