Groupe SEB - 2023 Yearbook

Performance in 2023 was solid, and Groupe SEB returned to

dynamic growth trends much more in line with our historical

standards. But navigating this period did not occur without

challenges.

Our industry is unfortunately becoming less attractive to

talent, despite presenting an amazing playground for in-

novation since it is behind a large number of products and

technologies that directly improve the quality of everyday life.

Our professions are also very varied. There is production, of

course, but also purchasing, supply, logistics, product devel-

opment, etc. And it is an amazing driver for the ecology and

energy transition investing in cleaner and more sustainable

technologies Decarbonization will be achieved by and with

the industry

For all these reasons I invite and encourage the young gen

eration to rise to these new challenges and devise design

and produce the innovations of tomorrow

There are also an increasing number of various standards

in all the markets in which the Group is established. The

acceleration of these requirements makes it difficult to

conduct the Company’s business and ensure global com-

petitiveness. We say “yes” to standards that pave the way

for the future, but “no” to legislative bloat that weakens the

industrial sector, which must be profitable for sustainable

innovation. Groupe SEB has always given consumer and

employee health a central place, doing so by drawing on sci-

entific data and taking societal and industrial consequences

into account in their entirety.

We will always be ready to defend our expertise!

2023 also brought to a close our “Act for sustainable livings”

CSR initiative, launched in 2018; the results are extremely

positive, with an overall achievement rate of 119% for the

four pillars: People Matter, Sustainable Innovation, Circular

Revolution and Climate Action. By capitalizing on its values,

historical strengths, and pioneering actions, the Group has

shown the capacity of its organization to experiment, inno-

vate, operationalize, scale up, and enhance skills to achieve

these results

Forwardlooking as always Groupe SEB approaches 2024

with ever greater faith in the solidity of its model and in the

relevance of the innovations offered to make consumers

everyday lives easier and more enjoyable and contributing

to better living around the world
