Amidst the Muscadet vineyards and the banks of the Sèvre Nantaise, a 19th-century château is beginning its new life. On 12th May 2026, Château du Portereau officially opened its doors as a 4-star hotel. Behind this metamorphosis: the Ben Touch group and an investment of €10 million.

Two trophies, four years in a row.

The Best Retail Chain awards are presented annually based on consumer surveys. In 2026, Technitoit once again triumphed in the Home Renovation category — confirming the awards received in 2023, 2024, and 2025. The network was also voted Best Franchise of the Year, an award that recognises the quality of franchisee support and the robustness of the business model.

This series is not to be taken lightly: it reflects customer satisfaction, network performance, and the consistency of a model that delivers on its promises over time.

What makes the difference: the manufacturer-applicator model.

Technitoit is not just any renovation franchise. The network is backed by Smart Lab, the R&D laboratory of the Ben Touch group, which designs and manufactures the products used on construction sites. This vertical integration—from formulation to the final brushstroke—ensures quality at every stage, trains technicians on mastered processes, and offers customers guarantees that resellers of third-party solutions cannot provide.

With over 80 branches in France and an expanding network of franchisees, Technitoit generated total turnover of €108 million in 2023, an increase of more than 10% compared with 2022.

A network that attracts entrepreneurs.

The title of Best Franchise is not just a mark of quality for customers – it is also a strong signal for franchise candidates. The Technitoit model offers a structured framework: initial and ongoing training, exclusive access to Smart Lab products, commercial and marketing support via Ben Touch Digital, and a buoyant market (energy renovation represents a national challenge with 7 million poorly insulated homes to address in France).

Heading for international.

Buoyed by this momentum, Technitoit is accelerating its international development. A first master franchise was opened in Portugal in June 2023, paving the way for other European markets. The Ben Touch group, present in two countries, aims for progressive expansion based on the same recipe: exclusive products, integrated expertise, and a supported network.
