From Forest Roots to Industrial Excellence

It all started in the Landes forest, in South-West France a region shaped by nature and industry. Groupe Arnaud was born there, becoming one of Europe’s largest producers of wooden crates and pallets. For decades, we helped move goods across the continent. But the world changed and we anticipated it.

In 1994, GPS (Global Pallets and Packaging Services) was created with a clear ambition: to replace disposable packaging with smarter, reusable solutions built for high-volume, high-demand industries.
