Special day "to be 20 years old in 2022" this Tuesday on France Bleu: at 20, you can create your own company. This is what Côme Pinczon du Sel has just done by launching "Allocations", based at Lab'O in Orléans. His portrait in "La Nouvelle Eco".

"Allocations": this is both the name of the company and the platform imagined and created by Côme Pinczon du Sel who already has two years of experience in entrepreneurship, when he was only 20 years. And it's a bad experience that he turned into a business and, perhaps, into a success: "Allocations comes from a bad buying experience. The day I bought a used vehicle, I personally suffered a fraud, so I decided to create a website that would put an independent automotive specialist in contact with an individual who wishes to have a used vehicle inspected before purchase, to check its reliability and quality. he objective is to determine the real quality and wear of the vehicle in order to reduce fraud, scams, parts trafficking and dubious origins", explains the young man from Orleans.

An anti-scam company

"We have therefore recruited and certified a network of around forty specialists in the Center region and around thirty in Ile-de-France who are graduates, qualified, with at least five years of experience in the automotive industry and who are available to inspect our customers' vehicles.

So how was this student, without his own funds, able to go from the idea to a realization that is now operational and domiciled at Lab'O d'Orléans? "There are advantages to starting at Lab'O, free support for the project, a nugget of student entrepreneurs, an organization with which I started and provided me with a network to discuss and train on certain themes of entrepreneurship. This allowed us to work on the project in detail..."

150 customers today

This support from Orléans Val de Loire Technopole notably allowed him to meet financial partners and even the one who was going to join this adventure. A rolling adventure: "It's been a year since we launched our fully functional and automated platform for connecting a specialist and an individual, and Allocasions now has 150 customers in the Centre-Val de Loire and the "Ile-de-France. The strength of our concept is to be dematerialized! And we have also created an artificial intelligence which makes it possible to calculate an indicative price of the vehicle for negotiation purposes!", enthuses Côme Pinczon salt.

So if you dare not buy from an individual, for lack of sufficient mechanical knowledge not to detect the possible catastrophe or the excellent health of a real business: Allocasions.fr
