The leader in its domestic market, Aneyron (€7 million revenue) boasts a strong presence in the world of soccer through its thermo-adhesive transfer products (player names and numbers, badges, logos, etc.).

The group is a major player in the world of soccer, supplying iconic clubs including Manchester United, Manchester City, AC Milan, Inter Milan and Olympique Lyonnais, as well as FIFA and UEFA. It is also enjoying strong growth in the US sports (NBA, NFL, etc.) and motor racing (McLaren, Williams F1, etc.) segments.
