Based in Nantes, Proconect specializes in power connectors for the transport (rail, port, airport, truck) and mining sectors. The company generates almost 70% of its sales from exports.
Capital Export became a majority shareholder in Proconect in July 2020, to support Béatrice Barokhel's takeover of the company. The aim of the new partners is to create a benchmark group in the field of electrical/electronic equipment for complex and critical environments in the transport sector, with a view to rapidly increasing sales. This strategy is based on Proconect's strong organic growth, and on an active and selective external growth policy, of which Minilampe is a new stage. Further acquisitions are under consideration.
Based in Carcassonne, France, Minilampe designs and markets customized lighting solutions for the aerospace, defense, rail, industrial and marine sectors. The company has a long history of expertise in the manufacture of incandescent lamps, and masters their production to a rare level of quality.
The new entity, which employs around fifty people, will generate sales of close to €15 million in the current financial year.
