For EU EPR providers.
You operate EPR in Germany, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium or another Member State. Your clients increasingly need France-specific coverage to comply with PPWR Article 45 since 12 August 2026. The mandataire REP must be France-established, that is what we are. One one-page referral letter, you add France to your service map without opening a French entity, hiring a French team, or learning Citeo, Refashion, Ecosystem and the rest from scratch.
The strategic case in three or four points.
From first lead to live IDU, in four steps.
You share a list of clients shipping to France (no PII, just legal names and stream needs). We assess scope and confirm pricing per client.
You introduce each client via email or shared folder. KYC handled by us in French; the client signs the mandate electronically. You stay on copy throughout if you prefer.
We file with the relevant French eco-organism(s). The IDU follows within days of membership (about seven business days after the membership is validated at Citeo). You receive a status notification at filing, approval, and publication.
We file the French declarations at each stream's frequency (most streams once a year). A simple CSV export of French tonnage lands in your shared folder so the data lines up with your German / Italian / Spanish records. Your partner fee is paid on your invoice once we have collected the setup fee.

The questions your BD team will ask first.
Our clients want one provider for all EU markets. Doesn’t a partner network create friction?
Less than you might assume. The client deals with you for everything except the French scope, where we transparently operate as the France-established mandataire because French law requires it. This is identical to how German clients see Take-e-way for German EPR, Italian clients see CONAI partners for Italian, standard EU EPR architecture, not a partnership quirk. Your relationship and renewal stay squarely with you.
How do we coordinate annual declarations across Member States?
Most streams are declared once a year. Exceptions: Ecomaison declares quarterly by default (annual on option below 15 t, 1,000 pieces and EUR 2 million of turnover in the stream), Valdelia quarterly, Ecominéro monthly, and Ecosystem electrical equipment quarterly unless contributions are paid by SEPA direct debit. After each filing we send you a one-page CSV summary of French tonnage so it lines up with your master EPR dashboard. Simple email or shared folder workflow, no portal, no integration to learn.
Can we co-brand the proposal to enterprise clients (Fortune 500, large EU retailers)?
Yes, on a case-by-case basis for specific named enterprise accounts. Co-signed written proposals. For named enterprise pursuits where the buyer wants a single accountable provider with multi-firm depth, this is the strongest pitch architecture. For everything else, plain referral is the right model.
What is the exclusivity stance?
Non-exclusive by default. We work with any EU EPR provider whose client portfolio needs French coverage. We do not exclude your competitors. The protection in the partnership letter is on individual clients (non-circumvention), once a client is introduced, we do not market into that client base.
Why no white-label or API at this stage?
We deliberately keep things simple. Building white-label or API tracks adds legal and engineering complexity that is hard to justify before partnership volume reaches clear scale. Referral covers the full economic logic (partner fee, non-circumvention, exclusivity-free). If a partnership matures into volume genuinely requiring white-label or API, we revisit at that point.
One form, one reply within a business day.
Pre-filled to your vertical. Léo replies personally in writing with the partner terms, partnership letter template and NDA. Partner terms: a referral fee, calculated on the setup fee we collect, for every stream opened for a producer you introduce, including streams added later. The annual fee is never shared. Paid on your invoice once we have collected. Each producer signs its own mandate with us.
