Directeur Général chez
Profil
Fondateur et PDG du site de déstockage vente-privée.com, Jacques-Antoine Granjon est le parfait représentant d’une nouvelle génération d’entrepreneurs ayant fait fortune grâce au web. La sienne est estimée à 750 millions d’euros et le place au 58éme rang des plus grosses fortunes de France selon le classement du magazine Challenges.
Jacques-Antoine Granjon grandit à Paris dans un milieu familial bourgeois, son père est directeur de société et sa mère avocate. Il suit ses études chez les Jésuites à Franklin, dans le XVIème arrondissement, puis ensuite à l’European Business School (EBS) de Paris jusqu’en 1985. A sa sortie, il fonde avec un de ses camarades de l’EBS, Julien Sorbac, la société Cofotex S.A, grâce à 20 000 francs qu’accepte de lui prêter son père. Lui et son associé ont 22 ans et achètent un lot de 200 chemises pour les revendre aux boutiques spécialisées, Jacques-Antoine Granjon commence sa carrière de grossiste en invendus. Six ans plus tard, son entreprise est le plus gros déstockeur d’Europe, avec un chiffre d’affaires de 80 millions de francs. En 1996, il reprend les anciennes imprimeries du journal Le Monde à la Plaine Saint-Denis et y installe le siège de sa société.
Mais en 2000, le roue tourne, les enseignes de mode à bas prix débarquent sur le marché et mettent fin au règne des soldeurs. Jacques-Antoine Granjon opte alors pour une reconversion sur un tout nouveau terrain : Internet. C’est ainsi qu’il fonde en janvier 2001 vente-privée.com avec sept associés. Misant sur sa grande expérience du déstockage, il souhaite adapter la vente des fins de séries à ce nouvel outil. Mais l’entreprise et son concept, basé sur un système de parrainage, peine à décoller pendant près de quatre ans.
L’inquiétude grandit au sein de la société, confrontée à la forte réticence des marques, qui craignent de voir se dégrader leur image sur Internet. Fin 2003, une vente de lingerie féminine se déroule particulièrement bien, près de 60 000 femmes se connectent sur le site.
C’est le début du succès pour Vente Privée, passant de 20 millions d’euros de chiffre d’affaires en 2004 à près d’un milliard en 2010. La détermination sans faille de Jacques-Antoine Granjon finit par payer et son site dispose maintenant d’une longueur d’avance sur ses concurrents. En effet, alors que ceux-ci démarrent en 2006 en levant de l’argent, Vente Privée est déjà profitable depuis près de deux ans. Cette situation de dominant, l’entreprise s’efforce d’en profiter. En 2008, Jacques-Antoine Granjon peut compter sur l’appui d’un investisseur américain, le fonds Summit Partners, qui dispose de 20% du capital de Vente Privée.
En 2010, le PDG signe un partenariat avec le groupe financier American Express, comptant pas moins de 42 millions de membres. Le géant Amex aide le site français à s’implanter dans toute l’Europe (Allemagne, Espagne, Italie, Grande-Bretagne, Autriche et Belgique), qui compte désormais plus de 13 millions de clients au total sur le Vieux Continent dont 9 millions en France.
Les deux sociétés associées vont créer une une joint-venture pour s’implanter aux Etats-Unis, chacun devant investir entre 15 et 20 millions de dollars dans cette structure, qui disposera pour débuter d’un capital de 35 à 40 millions de dollars.
Aujourd’hui, Vente Privée compte plus de 13 millions de membres et ses 1,3 millions de visiteurs par jour lui permettent d’être le second site le plus visité de France. Employant aujourd’hui 1 300 personnes, le temps ou vente-privée.com comptait un seul employé et 10m2 de locaux semble bien loin.
