Regulatory News:
Mon courtier énergie groupe (ISIN code: FR001400H3A0 Mnemonic: ALMCE), an energy broker for businesses, today announced its 2023 sales figures.
Guillaume Rouaud, CEO of Mon courtier énergie groupe, comments: "Our revenue growth in 2023 is due in particular to the excellent sales momentum in France, supported by the densification of the branch network and the acquisition of new customers. This momentum will continue from 2024, with the gradual deployment of our two other growth drivers: the 'Energy Transition' offering and the internationalization of our business, with a successful first move into Spain. To support this growth, we have stepped up our recruitment drive, adding 60 new employees by 2023, and strengthened our financial resources, thanks in particular to our successful IPO on the Euronext Growth market in Paris. On the strength of these assets, we are confident of achieving our targets set for 2025."

To coordinate the local team, at the beginning of January 2024, the Group appointed Joel Campos as Sales Director for Spain.
