About
Founded in 1984, Fermes de Figeac is a co-op headquartered in Figeac, France with approximately 50-200 employees specializing in Solar, Wind, Biogas.
Fermes de Figeac is a cooperative agricultural and territorial enterprise founded in the mid-1980s by farmers seeking to maintain local mutual purchasing power. Operating as SICASELI, it has evolved beyond agricultural supply to encompass four major sectors: agricultural supply and development, local retail distribution, renewable energy, and wood materials. The cooperative employs approximately 130 staff and manages 6 subsidiaries. It operates multiple Gamm Vert stores, butcher shops (Boucherie des Éleveurs), and agricultural supply depots across Lot and neighboring regions. In renewable energy, Fermes de Figeac is a key actor in rural energy transition, developing rooftop photovoltaic systems on agricultural buildings, participatory wind parks (notably La Luzette), and collective anaerobic digestion units. The organization emphasizes territorial energy sovereignty, local food circuits, agroecological transition support, and sustainable forest management. All revenues are reinvested locally to fund community projects and maintain rural services.
