Pitch
Presentation
Founded in 2021, Le Fourgon reinvents the old-fashioned milkman service by delivering beverages and reusable products to homes and offices using electric vans. After a promising launch in Lille, the company expanded throughout Northern France and rapidly into several major French cities (Bordeaux, Toulouse, Strasbourg, Lyon, Nantes, Nancy, etc.). Today, it operates 18 warehouses near each of these cities to centralize a diverse range of nearly 2,500 items, primarily from local producers (within 150 km of the warehouses).
Le Fourgon now offers a wide array of new products: hygiene items, cosmetics, rice, pasta, vegetables, flour, sugar, applesauce, etc., which has increased the average basket size by over €14 and boosted its private label brand to account for 18% of sales (up from 7.5% in 2023). With its new locations, Le Fourgon reused nearly 8.6 million bottles in 2023—a first in France—and achieved a strong revenue growth of over €1.9 million per month. The service has won the approval of more than 58,000 customers, with a satisfaction rating of 4.97/5 on Trustpilot.
Having raised €17 million since its inception, including €3 million in bonds from 1,526 citizens via LITA.co France in 2023, Le Fourgon continues its expansion momentum and aims to solidify its model. It is now inviting its community to invest €3 million in its capital alongside existing investors, in preparation for its Series B funding round planned for 2025.
We are offering you this opportunity to make an equity investment in a French company because, thanks to its successful development to date and its growth prospects, the company offers attractive potential for capital gains and a good opportunity to diversify your capital portfolio. What's more, the company has a Benelux-wide development plan and is aiming to set up in Belgium in the near future.
Please note that Le Fourgon is a French company, so the Tax Shelter is not available for this investment. LITA.co BE would nevertheless like to offer you this investment for the reasons mentioned above.
