Liquified gas distributor serving 25,000 unconnected French communes
Primagaz distributes liquified petroleum gas across rural France—territories without natural gas infrastructure—and is now scaling operations through SAP modernization (S/4HANA, Fiori, GRC) and ServiceNow implementation. The hiring mix (operations-heavy, with mid-level managers and engineers) and active projects (SAP transport monitoring, ServiceNow rollout, risk management policy) indicate a push toward operational automation and compliance infrastructure. Pain-point data reveals friction around manual SAP administration, GDPR compliance, and supply-chain continuity during terminal strikes—operational constraints typical of distributed logistics networks.
Primagaz France is a liquified gas distributor operating since 1938, now owned by Dutch group SHV Energy (the world's largest LPG distributor). The company serves approximately 25,000 French communes not connected to the natural gas grid, supplying both residential and commercial customers. Primagaz has positioned itself as an early adopter of sustainable alternatives, distributing biopropane (renewable propane) since launch and targeting 10% biofuel distribution by 2033. The operation spans supply logistics, field service, customer support, and compliance—all layers now undergoing digital transformation via SAP and ServiceNow. The company employs 501–1,000 staff across France and holds Platinum ESG certification (EcoVadis, top 1% tier) for the fourth consecutive year.
