Born near the ocean in 2009, Sellsy is committed to many sportsmen and women, institutions and associations. The company has a large number of clients in the nautical industry, including boat builders, sail makers, equipment manufacturers and shipyards. 

From the outset of the Sellsy adventure, its founders wanted to create a corporate culture built around strong values: commitment, caring and transparency. Values that resonate strongly with those of the legendary non-stop, unassisted round-the-world race. ‘We're delighted to be a technical supplier to the Vendée Globe and to be supporting the organisation in the 10th edition. As a company based in La Rochelle, Sellsy has always been committed to the nautical world, and this year we are delighted to be able to make our marketing tools available and contribute to the effective communication of this prestigious race,’ explains Sidney Ouarzazi, VP Marketing at Sellsy.

This collaboration with the Vendée Globe reflects a shared vision of a more responsible future. ‘The CSR commitment and innovative solutions proposed by the French company Sellsy are perfectly in line with the environmental ambitions of the Vendée Globe. The company obtained a score of 72%, which is the ‘exemplary ’* grade from an environmental point of view. Together, we are committed to promoting sustainable practices and reducing our impact,’ explains Alain Leboeuf, President of the Vendée Globe and the Vendée department.
