Murfy, his 350 employees and a turnover close to 20 million euros, caught the attention of the minister Agnès Pannier-Runacher, visiting Nieppe on Thursday.
Every year in France, tens of millions of household appliances are thrown away, donated or resoldproviding a valuable resource for refurbishers like Murfy.
A leading player in the French circular economy in the household appliances sector, Murfy defends a model focused on the general interest.
The Nieppe company took advantage of this visit to convince the Minister of Ecological Transition of the importance of its market.
