Orexad, formed from the merger of Orefi with Autodistribution’s industrial supplies division, operates as a multi-specialist on the industrial supplies distribution market. With 160 points of sale in France, 15 in the Netherlands, and 5 in Romania, Orexad is France’s leading industrial supplies distributor and one of the largest in Europe. Following the purchase of Anjac FI, #3 in France, the two networks command together 20 % of the French market.

Since the buyout led by Investcorp in June 2006, EMZ has supported Orexad and its management team at all steps of its external growth strategy.
