The Three Pillars of Our Model

Currently, the Antal network in France includes 18 franchised offices located in the country’s major cities. Each office specializes in a niche sector, ensuring both undeniable success and a highly effective response to the specific needs of our clients.

Importantly, 100% of our franchisees do not come from a recruitment background. Instead, they leverage their own professional expertise to successfully carry out highly specialized recruitment missions—whether at executive or technical levels.
