Groupe GUILLIN

On November 10, we wished Fabrice Amedeo the best of luck as he set off on the Vendée Globe 2024. 19 days later, the skipper is leaving his best life on his Imoca!   More motivated than ever, he is pursuing a twofold objective: to complete this extraordinary adventure and to collect invaluable scientific data on the oceans, thanks to his cutting-edge equipment, including 15 m² of solar panels, marking a step towards eco-responsible sailing, without recourse to fossil fuels.   It has to be said that Fabrice has the honour and courage of racing his 3rd Vendée Globe:   2016-2017: a first participation concluded in 11th place. 2020: difficult conditions forced him to retire. 2024: he returns more determined than ever to tackle the 45,000 kilometers around the globe.   Already two weeks at sea, and Fabrice is continuing his journey with resilience, facing up to the challenges of the Atlantic and setting course for the Southern Ocean. This race is much more than a competition: it's a demonstration of perseverance and an exceptional human adventure.   Fabrice, we're behind you every mile. Continue to inspire us with your courage and commitment! Godspeed! Follow his social media accounts to get the most of his life on the ocean!   #VendéeGlobe #Imoca #Innovation #Sustainability #TeamSpirit

Emotion, pride and great happiness yesterday to see our CEO Sophie GUILLIN carry the Olympic Flame:   "On Tuesday 25 June 2024, I had the pleasure of carrying the Olympic Flame in our beautiful region of Franche-Comté, France.   Through this honour, this Flame, I had the pleasure of representing the values of Olympism, values of peace and unity that we need today more than ever. I could never have imagined the emotion I would feel on this exceptional day.   I am fully aware of the honour that has been bestowed upon me and I would like to share it with the 3,000 employees of the Guillin Group who, on a daily basis, embody the values of performance, respect and team spirit that are found in sport.   Faster, higher, stronger. All together."   #guillin #weprotectyourfood

More than 2.5 billion. More than two billion and a half plastic bottles collected on the shores before it reaches the rivers and ocean, and turned into new products. This is the result of the amazing job accomplished by @Prevented Ocean Plastic, of which we are proud Founding Partner.   Prevention is key to limit the flow of plastic waste entering the ocean from land-based source and this is exactly what these teams do: creating local centers in countries such as Indonesia, helping local people to earn their living by cleaning their coastlines, recycling material to reintegrate in new productions.   Prevented Ocean PlasticTM has been part of our packaging production since 2019 and we thank our customers for indirectly committing to this action.   On Word Oceans Day, let’s remember that plastic can become its own resource. #UNWorldOceansDay #saveourocean #chooserecycled #recycling #sustainability #guillin #weprotectyourfood

Bye New York, time to head back to France! The journey to New York has been rich and gruelling, but Fabrice Amedeo is already setting off again with a new goal in mind. After braving some extremely difficult sailing conditions, the skipper crossed the finish line of The Transat CIC on 10 May at 15h38 (Paris time) after almost twelve days at sea, officially qualifying for the Vendée Globe. He has now set sail again, heading for Lorient, France. This trip back is an opportunity for a two-week training sail in false solo with Jens Lindner, the boat captain. This crucial session will enable them to push the boat even harder and continue to make progress. The first leg of the transatlantic race proved the boat's reliability, but Fabrice still has some marks to make in order to be fully ready for the Vendée Globe’s great adventure.   This Atlantic crossing will also be an opportunity to make a contribution to oceanographic research. The skipper will be collecting essential data for his scientific partners, such as data for measuring the presence of cetaceans in the North Atlantic.   Have a safe journey, Fabrice!   #vendéeglobe2024 #OceanCalling #sailing #imoca #imocarace #guillin

60 years ago, a group of British sailors set themselves the challenge of crossing the Atlantic single-handed, as quickly as possible.  Finished in 40 days, THE TRANSAT was born. Now the oldest single-handed sailing race is also the most prestigious: 48 sailors crossed the start line this sunday in Lorient, including Fabrice Amedeo. He has now set off on this daring race, which will take him all the way to the vibrant metropolis of New York, before returning to Vendée on May 29. This departure symbolises not only the start of a demanding competition, but also another step on the road to the Vendée Globe. We're behind you, Fabrice, and may the winds be kind to you!

1 - 3 - 5. These three figures are key for us, and we'll explain why. 1% ➡️ Plastic food packaging accounts for less than 1% of the world's oil consumption. 3% ➡️ Plastic food packaging accounts for 11% of plastic bottles and only 3% of plastic household packaging.  5% ➡️ The carbon footprint of plastic food packaging represents less than 5% of the climate impact of packaged food. All of which goes to show that, in the final analysis, plastic food packaging represents only a tiny fraction of plastic consumption and ecological impact, and that it also prevents food waste. So it's fair to ask why they are so stigmatised: do you have an opinion? #keytakeways #plasticfoodpackaging #guillin #weprotectyourfood

There are missions that we carry out with honour and pride, like the emblematic task of carrying the Olympic Flame for Paris 2024.   Could she ever have imagined being entrusted with such a mission? "Of course, not... But what a joy! Our CEO Sophie GUILLIN has been selected by BANQUE POPULAIRE BOURGOGNE FRANCHE-COM, Official Sponsor of the Relays of the Flame, to carry the famous torch as it passes through the French region Doubs.   From 8 May 2024, 500 torchbearers selected by this sponsor - "ordinary people with extraordinary backgrounds" - will travel across our regions to set the cauldron ablaze at the opening ceremonies of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.   This is a new adventure to add to our CEO's career and, above all, another fantastic opportunity for her to represent her native region, the birthplace of our Group, and all our employees, with the values that drive us every day and that are found in sport: excellence, respect, team spirit and performance.   If we dared, we could almost say that in a few months' time, a little #guillin will be shining in Paris...   #WeCarryTheFlame #NousPortonsLaFlamme #Paris2024

In the vast ocean of possibilities and adventures, sailing stands out as a true passion, capturing the spirit of freedom, exploration and challenge. Filled with this energy, our partner Fabrice Amedeo relaunched his boat last week in Lorient, after a period of optimization and reliability, for a new season that we hope will be exciting! An Imoca decked out in new colors, with the arrival of a new partner to support the skipper in his adventure: now named "Nexans - Wewise", this boat "will carry high the values of ocean preservation and energy transition", as Fabrice explains. This Imoca has also been fitted with solar panels to enable it to circumnavigate the globe, recharging its batteries without the use of fossil fuels and powered by the wind. This equipment complements the various sensors for CO2, salinity, temperature, micro-particles and environmental DNA, which will be used to report data on the quality of the oceans. Skipper and boat still have a month to get ready, because new adventures are coming soon: THE TRANSAT race will set off from Les Sables d'Olonne on April 28 to the Statue of Liberty in New York, returning at the end of May. Stay tuned to follow Fabrice Amedeo's journey towards the Vendée Globe 2024!  #imoca #oceancalling #sailing #guillin #weprotectyourfood
