After being laid off for economic reasons, this textile industry executive decided to start his own business and put his skills directly to work for his clients. He joined the Activ Travaux network in Amiens and is primarily looking to reference recognized craftspeople who are used to working together, for greater symbiosis on a client's construction site.

In Amiens, a second Activ Travaux broker comes to the aid of the works

Franck Létocart, 38, joins Gaëlle Maslard, who has been supporting the residents of Amiens for the past three years in the successful completion of their projects in the southern and western parts of the city. Based in Aveluy (near Albert), he covers the eastern part of Amiens. (Poulainville to the North, Fienvillers, the canton of Doullens, Achiète Le Petit, Pozières, the canton of Albert Méaulte, Bray-sur-Somme, the canton of Corbie, Lamotte Warfusée, Glisy, Rivery for the south of its sector).

An operational executive in the textile industry, Franck Létocart has chosen to reorient his professional life. Backed by Activ Travaux (a brand that brings together 90 dealerships in France), he now works as a construction broker. He is the second contractor to set up in the Somme region under the Activ Travaux banner.

Provide professional service, work with confidence
Made redundant following the acquisition of the high-tech textile industry he had worked for for 14 years, Franck Létocart had no desire to return to the industrial sector. His approach was as follows: build a project, prepare for a career change, and work for himself.

« I wanted to join a national brand to benefit from solid training, to be supported by a group in the creation of my business and in its development "After a year of reflection and exploring different avenues, Franck Létocart decided to set up his own construction brokerage company. A very nice service concept, which allows us to provide a comprehensive offer to an individual, to help them with their procedures and to secure the completion of their real estate work. ».

Franck Létocart is well-versed in these imperatives: attentive to others and meticulous in his delivery. His professional career has allowed him to accumulate a wealth of solid knowledge. As a textile purchasing manager, he worked with a large network of suppliers. He greatly enjoyed this interpersonal aspect.

« The goal of creating my business is of course to make a living from it, but also to recreate a network of people and succeed in establishing mutual trust with the artisans, a real collaboration ».

Ensure the success of the work
It is with this in mind that Franck Létocart created his company Activ Travaux. In the field since early September, he has been activating his network, striving to provide a qualitative response to the needs expressed. He strives to bring together around fifty partners from all trades to provide his clients with the best solutions for construction, renovation, and interior and exterior design.

« I'm building a pool of tradespeople who are used to working together. So if an electrician works with a particular plasterer, I'll reference the plasterer... This helps ensure symbiosis on the construction sites. ».

To ensure the success of the projects entrusted to him, Franck Létocart surrounds himself exclusively with recognized professionals. He personally validates the quality of their achievements in the field.

With this work facilitator, everyone saves valuable time, both in the formalization phase of a project and in its execution.
