Thirty years ago, the Passiflore association was founded. Initially a small organization, it now employs over 55 people, 45 of whom are in reintegration programs.
Indeed, the unique aspect of this association is its focus on providing training for individuals undergoing professional reintegration. “We often have people who haven’t worked for a long time for various reasons, and this allows them to regain a work rhythm, discover or rediscover the codes of the company, or get back into a job-seeking dynamic,” explains the director, Marc Bourguin.

Their goal is to offer training that leads to sustainable jobs through various types of activities: “We have a resource center where we collect items that people no longer need. [...] The employees collect these donations, sort them, check them, and sell them in our solidarity shop. We also recycle pallets.
This is their way of contributing to a circular economy while helping individuals distanced from employment regain professional stability.
