The problem
Small building trade companies lose time and cash on admin, not on the job itself
France counts around 615,000 building trade companies, and about 90% of them are very small businesses (TPE), often a single tradesperson or a small crew. Quotes are frequently handwritten or built after hours on a laptop, invoices go out late, and unpaid invoices get chased informally, if at all. On top of that, a new legal deadline is approaching: every French company must be able to receive electronic invoices from 1 September 2026, and small businesses must be able to issue them from 1 September 2027.
