Fresh-prepared food manufacturer scaling production and sales across France
Sodebo is a vertically integrated food producer operating a single consolidated facility in western France, with over 2,900 employees managing 100+ internal disciplines from manufacturing through supply chain and sales. The hiring acceleration (21 roles posted in the last 30 days) is weighted toward early-career and intern positions, combined with active recruitment in sales and data — signaling simultaneous growth in output capacity and commercial push. Tech stack (Python, R, Power BI, AWS, Docker) reflects modest but functional data and cloud infrastructure for a 50-year-old food business scaling modern operations.
Sodebo manufactures refrigerated convenience foods — pizzas, sandwiches, salads, and pasta boxes — distributed across French retail and food-service channels. Founded in 1973, the company operates entirely from a single production site in Saint-Georges-de-Montaigü and maintains a workforce of approximately 2,900 across manufacturing, logistics, sales, and support functions. The business competes in high-velocity, price-sensitive snacking and ready-meal segments. Current operational priorities include sustaining raw-material supply amid inflationary pressure, managing workforce integration as headcount grows, and maintaining in-store visibility and sales performance in a crowded market.
