Our history

For nearly a decade, SEPALE has been successfully supporting its clients and building up its teams. The cumulative experience of the company’s CEO Christophe Bret and all its employees means that clients benefit from reliable, responsive and efficient support at all times.

SEPALE is agile and possesses unique know-how and therefore able to provide its partners with bespoke solutions.

In March 2021 Terre et Lac Conseil became completely independent, its capital now entirely owned by its operational teams.

On the 8th December 2021 Terre et Lac Conseil was renamed SEPALE.

our name

SEPALE

This  name is the result of a democratic choice on the team’s part, and underlines our company’s nature and convictions: to support and back our partners and their projects in keeping with an irreproachable environmental and human work ethic.

SEPALE is made up of experienced, mutually supportive and dedicated people.

We are committed to putting all our skills and know-how at the service of your projects to ensure that they flourish and grow.
