Coach'is
After announcing organic revenue growth in 2018 of 10.7%, Infotel today

Coach'is generated revenue of nearly EUR3 million as at 31 December 2018 and

as Cegelec, Fiducial, SPIE and Saint Etienne Métropole. APRR is a particular
client of Coach'is for which it offers specific expertise in highway
management.
This acquisition will strengthen Infotel's foothold in the Lyon area, where it
already has a team of 60 staff working for key accounts, including Banques
Populaires, Caisses d'Épargne, Agircc-Arrco, Groupama, ADP, APAVE, among
others, and which accounted for revenue of EUR5.4 million as at 31 December
2018.
The integration of Coach'is will broaden Infotel's scope of expertise and
confirm its positions to collaborate with key accounts in the Rhône-Alpes
region and support with their digital transformation projects.

enthusiastic to be teaming up with Infotel with which we share several values,
including operational excellence, commitment and a strong sense of customer
service."
