Sofidel

Le Crédit Lyonnais (LCL) has decided to celebrate Sofidel’s commitment to sustainability by awarding it the “Maillot Jaune des Entrepreneurs” (“Yellow Jersey for Entrepreneurs”) at the Tour de France 2024.

For the past four years, during the Tour, LCL has symbolically awarded a “Yellow Jersey for Entrepreneurs” to those clients and professionals who have distinguished themselves through social responsibility policies, innovation and economic dynamism.

The Yellow Jersey, an award given to 21 companies, one for each stage of the race, was presented at the first stage of this Tour, which started in Florence.

A video dedicated to the Group was also broadcast on the occasion and a page appeared in L’Équipe, the major French sports newspaper that organizes the competition.

Seeing our name associated with a legendary race, which has written with its champions some of the greatest pages in sports history, is a source of pride and a spur to continue to improve and give our best.
