La miroiterie Targe, championne d’Europe de miroiterie avec Laure Vereecken

 

Travaillant à la Miroiterie Targe, à Lyon, Laura Vereecken est de plus la toute première championne d'Europe de miroiterie. Un titre, obtenu en 2021, qu'elle doit… un peu au hasard.

Dans une profession qui reste encore très masculine, Laura Vereecken est une pionnière. Elle est, et restera, la première à avoir inscrit son nom au palmarès des Euroskills en catégorie miroiterie. "Avant 2021, année où j'ai gagné, l'épreuve n'existait pas", indique la jeune miroitière qui, a 26 ans, est salariée de la Miroiterie Targe, à Lyon, depuis deux ans.

Un succès que la Nordiste d’origine doit presque au hasard. "Tout a commencé lors d'une journée portes ouvertes dans un lycée pro de Tourcoing. Je voulais me renseigner sur la sérigraphie ou l'ébénisterie mais je me suis perdu et suis tombée devant le stand de miroiterie." Une révélation.

Pour Laura Verrecken, la divine surprise des Euroskills miroiterie

Un CAP en poche, elle s'inscrit finalement en brevet des métiers d'art et découvre les Worldskills. "C'est un formateur, expert national, qui m'a poussé à m'inscrire." Gagnante de l'épreuve régionale, elle termine ensuite troisième des finales nationales, en 2018, à Caen. "Et là, j'ai eu un coup de chance, puisque les deux candidats qui m'avaient précédé ont déclaré forfait pour les championnats d'Europe."

 

Et une autre médaille d’Or pour la miroiterie Targe

 

le Graal pour Lilian Vallet

Le jeune apprenti, en alternance au sein de la Miroiterie Targe, a remporté la seule médaille d’or régionale pour la filière bâtiment et travaux publics.

Une image parle souvent plus fort que les mots. Pour s’en convaincre, il suffit de jeter un coup d’œil à la cérémonie de clôture des Worldskills et à la joie qui a envahi Lilian Vallet à l’annonce des résultats de l’épreuve de miroiterie. Médaillé d’or, le représentant de la région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes a eu du mal à cacher son émotion. Dans sa tête défilait sûrement tout le travail parcouru pour arriver à ce fantastique résultat…

Pour lui, tout a démarré à l’âge de 15 ans. "J’ai commencé par un CAP en menuiserie aluminium et verre, au CFA de Dardilly, explique le jeune de 19 ans, originaire de Chalon-sur-Saône. Et j’ai poursuivi par deux ans de BP avant de débuter un bac pro au lycée professionnel Gustave-Eiffel, en alternance au sein de l’entreprise Miroiterie Targe." Un choix de carrière que le tout récent médaillé d’or ne regrette pas. "J’ai découvert le métier de miroitier lors de ma formation au CFA. Ça m’a tout de suite beaucoup plu. Surtout qu’en choisissant cette voie, j’avais la possibilité de participer aux Worldskills."

Ce concours, il l’a pourtant commencé sans vraiment trop y croire. "C’est Laurent Gressard, formateur à Dardilly, qui m’en avait parlé. Mais je me suis lancé un peu comme ça, sans grand esprit de compétition." Rapidement, Lilian Vallet s’est tout de même pris au jeu jusqu’à se préparer pendant des semaines pour la phase deux des finales. "Je savais que pour réussir, il allait falloir être très bon." Et il le serait jusqu’au bout

The record of this end of the year and probably early 2018, is obviously that of the future of Rocamat, in receivership since early November. What will happen to the French number one natural stone? Continuing its activities with the same shareholders? The arrival of new owners for a global recovery? Or for a partial recovery with sales of some other assets? The arrival of foreign shareholders?

Answers to these and other questions about Rocamat are a key issue for the French stone industry, which, in this period of economic recovery, needs a fit leader, which boosts promotion and growth. diffusion of the French stone, in the Hexagon and in the World.

A first consequence of the difficult situation of Rocamat, was the election at the head of SNROC of Sylvain Laval who succeeds Pierre Brousse, owner of Rocamat, who had preferred to leave the head of the union, some time before the official announcement of the recovery of his company.

The Rocalia team

 

The Darget marble in Oloron, France will move.

Two birds with one stone. Marble Darget is building new premises at the entrance of the city that will allow their workshop to expand.

Created in 1946, by Laurent Darget, the stone cut marble company has continued and was developed by René Darget.

Currently, Stéphane Darget represents the third generation in family continuity.

 

The original workshop was located downtown, facing the Cathedral Ste Marie d'Oloron. The use of new materials necessitated its transfer to the outskirts of the city, to Saint Pée d'Oloron. The exhibition and sales store is maintained at 10, Cathedral Square. In more than sixty years, the evolution of techniques and machine tools has been considerable. The marble industry has seen the chisel, the chisel to engrave, the logs to hoist the heavy loads, then the mechanization, the automation, and today the digital one.

 

The company, located near the quarry basin of marble and stone Arudy, is naturally qualified to work all types of limestone, granite and other French or foreign minerals. Continuing the traditional manufacture of funerary monuments and colombariums, we oriented the activity in the field of stones for door and window frames, corner chains of houses, massive sinks, fountains, fireplaces as well as worktops for kitchens and bathrooms.

 

BRACHOT TAKES CONTROL OF BELTRAMI

 

Beltrami and Brachot join forces. Since November 10, 2017, the Beltrami Group, an international wholesaler specializing in natural stone with subsidiaries in Belgium (Harelbeke and Bruges), the United Kingdom and France, has ceded control of the group to Brachot-Hermant. This sale promises to strengthen their position in the natural stone market and accelerate the development for the two companies Beltrami group and Stoneasy.com for Brachot.

Proof that continuity and consolidation in the natural stone and construction sector continue.

In combination with know-how, product mix and human capital, this transfer will generate many synergies. Complementarity that has advantages in terms of supply, cost structure, customer and supplier files and day-to-day management of the company. The two Beltrami and Brachot-Hermant family holdings are completely family-owned businesses that have been in existence for several decades and are active in the extraction, import, production and distribution of natural stone tiles and slabs. Brachot-Hermant still belongs entirely to the Van Overberghe family. Beltrami, for its part, was founded in 1986 by the Callewier family. The latter is now out of the capital and sells all its shares to Brachot-Hermant.

Former owner Herwig Callewier, however, will continue to serve as Beltrami's General Manager and will be in charge of the integration of the two UK subsidiaries and the group's six French subsidiaries. Bram Callewier, his son, will continue to manage it daily and will be responsible for the development of the Stoneasy.com Internet division. Father and son will also join Brachot's board of directors to ensure continuity with customers, staff and suppliers. The sale of Beltrami Group allows Brachot-Hermant to create a vertically integrated company, with consolidated annual turnover of 140 million euros and 550 employees. Complementary brands The Beltrami, Stoneasy.com and Brachot brand names will be kept on the market because, in addition to complementing each other, they will be strengthened over time, both geographically and in terms of products. In the short term, particular attention will be paid to the integration and broadening of the offer in order to propose in 2018 a uniform, clear and rich range on the market. Consolidation in the sector The sale is part of Beltrami's family monitoring. Herwig Callewier, General Manager: "For some time, consolidation has been going on in the natural stone sector, both for suppliers and customers. As a wholesaler, we need to ride this trend and adapt. Margins are dwindling and economies of scale are needed. With this transfer, the two players join forces in terms of expertise, supply and geographic deployment, while aspiring to joint progress and new opportunities. Dirk Van Overberghe, managing director of Brachot-Hermant: "We intend to continue developing Beltrami and Stoneasy.com's successful formula. Beltrami has a good market position, competent and motivated employees, a large customer base and reliable suppliers. With the new management, the group will seize the opportunities to further deploy Beltrami, Stoneasy.com and Brachot brands in the European market. "

 

Degroof Petercam attended Brachot-Hermant, in the acquisition of the Beltrami group.

The corporate finance team of Degroof Petercam advised Brachot-Hermant in the structuring, negotiation and execution of the transaction. This is the third time that Degroof Petercam has assisted the Brachot Group in making an acquisition, after advising the group on two buybacks in 2013.
