Our story

A Family Story

Patrice Gautier was a cabinetmaker, a creative and audacious man. With his wife Annick Soulard and his brother-in-law Dominique Soulard, they created the Gautier brand and transformed it from a small workshop in the Vendée region into an internationally renowned industrial group. For 50 years, they shaped Gautier, proudly upholding the company's values and extending its reach far beyond the borders of their native Vendée.

Today, the Gautier group is led by its founding family, with the second generation of the four siblings now at the helm, under the leadership of David Soulard.
