Leading sales agency for breakthrough technology brands on the French market.
We partner with innovative technology brands to win retail in France — from first listing to lasting growth. A business engineered for growth, twelve years in, still chasing the harder challenges.
Experts with a proven track record building new categories
For 12 years we've taken on the products no one else wanted to launch — and turned them into shelf staples. From connected wellness and fitness in 2014 to mPOS in 2020. We go where the challenge is at its peak.
Techsome brings the best consumer electronic products and innovation to the French market — by handling every aspect of the commercial chain, end-to-end.
We work with leading distributors and retailers across the territory and select the channel mix most suited to each brand. We're picky about it: we'd rather grow one brand into a category leader than dilute the focus across ten.
Several success stories behind us, more in the making. We're eager to meet distinctive brands and conquer France together.
One partner, the full commercial chain.
Our promise: get your brand commercially successful in France by handling every aspect of the sales process. No silos, no hand-offs. From the first prospecting call to the last debit note.

The brands we champion — the channels they reach.
A focused roster, in markets where we know the buyers, the shelves, and the levers. Below: brands we've represented, retailers we sell into, wholesalers we move volume through, and the partners that keep it all moving.
What partners say after the deal is closed.
Trust isn't claimed, it's earned across years of buying cycles, missed forecasts, recovered launches and shared wins. Here's what a few of them put in writing.
I was lucky to have Clément in my team during 3 years at SumUp. His retail and business development expertise contributed greatly to the many successes we had together. He is a well connected and composed professional who communicates efficiently and works hard towards achieving company objectives. I would recommend him to any business looking to expand and thrive in the French market.
A skilled sales, market and brand expert. We responded quickly to trends and opportunities thanks to his structured approach and clear communication. One of the most professional team members I've come across.
An exceptional Key Account Manager. Strong reasoning and negotiation skills, real attention to detail — Clement has an old head on young shoulders. A real asset to any brand bringing exceptional products to a global market.
Clément carries his business vision with passion and conviction, results-driven. He grabs every commercial and marketing opportunity to push the company's results beyond targets.
Clement is one of the persons in this business I would recommend without hesitation. He took away my objections without having to give in to all my demands, then managed the business with a focus on actions that led to significant increases in sales.
A small team. Each expert in their field.
No layers. You meet the people doing the work, and they're the same people walking into the buyer's office on your behalf.
