Acorus
Created in 1996, the Acorus Group initially specialized in the renovation of housing on behalf of social landlords in Ile de France. Since 2010, the group taken over by Philippe Benquet has accelerated its development by diversifying into 5 businesses: rehabilitation, refurbishment of housing, upkeep, maintenance and adaptation for people with reduced mobility. Focusing as much on customer service as on the quality of execution, Acorus has been able to retain its historic customers and penetrate new markets, notably the hotel industry and retirement homes.
In 15 years, Acorus has thus built its reputation through a pioneering and original positioning in the construction industry, as a “building services company” responding to 2 major current societal challenges: (i) building renovation existing systems (health, safety, energy saving) and (ii) adaptation of housing and buildings to the aging of the population (home care for the elderly, access for people with reduced mobility).
In 2022, the turnover is 260 million euros. Acorus today has more than 1600 employees to support its growth.
