Archea, a French franchise specialising in custom interior design, has reported a 4% increase in turnover for 2024. Despite challenges posed by the tense real estate market, the company has strengthened its position in the home sector. The brand, which operates 60 stores, celebrated its 40th anniversary by opening new showrooms in Nantes/Vertou and Saint-Brieuc, alongside a comprehensive renovation of several existing locations.

The company's growth has been attributed to a strategic territorial network and investments in innovation. In 2024, Archea also expanded its catalogue with 25 new décors inspired by current trends and natural materials, bringing the total to around 100. Additionally, the brand introduced the Bjelin flooring line and is set to expand its offering with prestigious new collaborations such as Ripaton, Sokoa, and La Manufacture de France under the "Sélection Archea" label.
Archea has also continued its environmental efforts by reducing waste on the production line to just 12% and sourcing over 90% of materials from France. The company's sustainability commitment is further demonstrated through its ongoing PEFC certification for its production unit.
Looking ahead to 2025, Archea aims to strengthen its role as a "privileged partner for global renovation projects" while continuing to expand its network with three new showrooms and further renovations to improve customer experience. The company projects another 4% increase in turnover for the year.
