LIM Group was created in 2013 through the merger of CWD and Devoucoux, two of the brands in the Butet Group and employs 630.

Brice Cuenca, LIM Group’s head of information systems and e-commerce, said: "LIM Group is made up of 15 subsidiaries which interact strongly on a daily basis. However, with 70% of our business being exported — notably to Germany, Canada and the US — we did not have the right solution to support our development, both in terms of functional coverage and in terms of a single repository and traceability.” 

The group has 12 manufacturing and after-sales service workshops. It is also building a second-hand saddles business, which it says feeds into the idea of a “circular economy”.

The Infor solution will include Infor Factory Track, a production automation solution that supports warehouse mobility and traceability.

Mr Cuenca said: "Because of our history, we had significant legacy technology, with a lot of specific in-house developments to rationalise. Thanks to the functional richness and scalability of the Infor CloudSuite solution, Authentic and Infor have convinced us of their ability to support us over the long term, particularly in terms of our strategic ambitions, which are above all to develop our services activities.”
