The historic birthplace of Socomec, the Europe, Middle East and Africa region has played a central role in the Group’s history and development. It was in Benfeld, just outside Strasbourg, that our industrial journey began in 1922.
Today, the region accounts for more than 60% of Socomec’s revenue. It is supported by a strong industrial and commercial network, including production sites in France, Italy and Tunisia, 12 sales offices in France and 21 subsidiaries across Europe. This footprint reflects a clear choice: staying close to our markets and customers, while continuing to invest in local, competitive and responsible production.
Joining our teams in Europe means becoming part of an industrial story that is still moving forward, close to our sites, our expertise and the markets that have shaped Socomec.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene
If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
