Founded in 2014, PIEUX ML specializes in the manufacture and installation of screw piles. To carry out its activities, PIEUX ML imports tubes and propellers from Europe, using 20-foot and 40-foot containers, or opting for bulk shipments to optimize ocean freight costs. The delivery of these inputs generates an additional cost that directly impacts the cost of the finished product. In order to compensate for this additional cost linked to the outermost situation of French Guiana, the company wishes to benefit from the freight aid. This aid is essential to limit the impact of these additional costs on the selling price of its products and thus maintain their competitiveness. Thanks to this aid operation, PIEUX ML will be able to absorb the additional cost of freight without passing it on to its customers. The company offers solutions adapted to the specificities of the terrain while reducing the impact of invasive methods such as drilling or excavations. The freight compensation operation is part of a regional economic development strategy by supporting the existence and growth of local industry. The remoteness of PIEUX ML from its suppliers results in additional costs related to ocean freight, which increases the total cost of products.
