Temperature-controlled logistics for fresh produce across France and Europe
Groupe Primever operates a multi-region transport and logistics network specialized in perishable goods, with a legacy tech stack (Symfony, PHP, MariaDB, WinDev, Delphi) reflecting a mature, operationally-focused business rather than a tech-driven one. The hiring mix is almost entirely logistics and operations (116 of 134 roles), with only 6 engineering positions, and predominantly junior/intern-level talent—indicating they are scaling fulfillment capacity rather than building new product. Active projects center on platform reorganization and compliance (QHSE, HACCP, waste management), suggesting internal operational friction outweighs feature development.
