Distritec

"CELO is an atypical logistics and supply chain trade fair that breaks the codes and standards. It’s more than a large exhibition hall where people wander — sometimes even getting lost. No, CELO is about targeted, high-quality meetings, new and inspiring encounters, opening one’s mind and broadening horizons. It creates a genuine virtuous circle. Many thanks to the OPTIM SALON team for organizing this event, for your kindness, and your sense of service.

And a very special thank you to France BURNAND for her attentiveness, thoughtfulness, and extraordinary network. Beyond the magnificent setting of the Hôtel Barrière du Golf in Deauville, it was a real pleasure to represent Edenred France, leader in earmarked funds, and to share these moments of exchange."

Veolog

"Very well organized from start to finish in a magnificent venue. Targeted, high-quality business meetings, all within a warm atmosphere."
