Be part of a long-term strategy
Founded in 1976, Samaro belongs to a family group based in Lyon. This capital structure is the basis for a company strategy that is resolutely long-term. Each year, our profits are reinvested to finance our growth and consolidate the future of the company and its employees.
A long-term vision shared and supported by our teams: attached to Samaro’s values, committed to their customers and partners, with a high level of expertise, they are committed to offering a quality service, guaranteeing the company’s long-term future.
A commitment illustrated by our signature: “We are proud to support your success.»
Offering tailor-made support
Since its creation, Samaro has sought to build itself around strong values: technical expertise, high standards, transparency and creativity, which are essential for innovation. But also, a great mastery of the market and its players.
Our experience, our relational and geographical proximity with our customers are all assets to accompany them in their industrial problems. Our customer service is exemplary. Every day, our teams work hard to meet the needs of our customers as closely as possible, by providing them with a perfectly adapted product. And if it does not exist in our partners’ ranges, by offering to adapt it in a customised formulation or packaging.
