MGL,
KEY DATES

The history of MGL (Michel Georges Lasserre) begins in 1978 With the creation of the eponymous commercial agency. With over twenty years of experience as a tiler, site manager and then sales professional in tile distribution in the Paris region, Michel Georges Lasserre then decided to take his career to the next level by entering international trade.

It didn't take him long to find a factory wiling to give him a chance.
His international career would thus begin with the Ivory Coast. The adventure could fiinally begin !

In light of this success, he was entrusted with new market : the Benin, Togo, Cameroon and Gabon. Thanks to his professionalism, his knowledge of the industry, and his interpersonal skills, Michel Georges Lasserre quickly became a leading figure in the field of tiles and sanitaryware in West Africa.

In February 1991, his son Jean-Michel Druenne-Lasserre joined the venture to support the existing business and help develop new markets. Together, they expanded the business into English-speaking West African countries (Ghana, Nigeria, Tanzania), the overseas territories, the Middle East as well asAsia.

In 2002, this natural evolution led to the official founding of MGL, marking a new milestone in the company's international expansion.
