The same business model that Jean-Claude Decaux developed in 1964 when he created the bus shelter with advertising face is adapting to all our activities today. We are not burdening local public financiers or taxpayers. With our innovative business model, we meet the needs of local governments and city residents and always offer smart and responsible solutions. We have experience in more than 200 areas, giving us complete control throughout the value chain. Thanks to this, we can ensure the optimal quality of products and services and focus fully on the needs of our customers.
