Journey & ventures
No inflated storytelling: every venture below exists, runs, and can be measured. The dates, the figures, the milestones.
This is where it all began. In 2010, in Orléans, we launched a franchise network dedicated to used vehicles. The concept grew into several complementary brands: BH Car for vehicle sales, BH Atelier for maintenance and repair, BH Pare-Brise for auto glass.
Fifteen years later, the network covers the whole of France: franchisee recruitment and support, process structuring, multi-brand development. It's the school of the field — and the proof that the model works.

Hexagone Automotive is a French company providing digital solutions and software for used-car sales professionals, through several brands: Vroomiz, Optimcar and Vobiz.
It is the natural extension of the field: after years running agencies, we knew exactly which tools used-vehicle sellers were missing. Hexagone builds them.
Today, more than 900 dealers rely on these solutions on a recurring basis, with over 14,000 vehicles available for sale and more than 40,000 vehicles sold every year across the ecosystem.

ProGarage is much more than workshop-management software: it is a complete environment built around independent garages. More than 300 garage owners across France rely on this ecosystem every day to run their business, structure their workshop and grow their customer base.
Quotes, scheduling, margins, website, appointment booking: every tool was designed in the field, alongside mechanics, with one strong belief: independents are stronger when they equip themselves like the big networks, without losing any of their freedom.
ProGarage now brings together a community of professionals who share the same standards: working better, invoicing better, and getting back time for what they truly love — mechanics.
