In 2014, in France, EIS launched EXA-AIR SAS (CEO: Thibaut Mallet de Chauny, EIS Founding Partner), manufacturing patented ultra-resistant protective packaging developed in Japan. In 2020, EIS sold EXA-AIR SAS to a French logistics company, THE MENLO GROUP (CEO:Jean-Francois DAVIET). It is EIS’s first startup business that successfully executed its exit strategy.
