Lacor – Between solid heritage and constant movement: the art of being fair, and always new
In a mixed economic context, where budget constraints weigh heavily on professional investments, some brands continue to forge their path with determination. This is the case for Lacor, a Spanish company well known in the culinary sector, whose French subsidiary, led by Christophe Decanter, relies on strong innovation dynamics and a firm anchoring in market expectations.
September, traditionally a key period for product launches, crystallizes this ambition. For Christophe Decanter, the French market remains strategic, even under pressure. The hospitality and catering sector is slowing down, orders are being delayed, and uncertainty dominates. Yet, Lacor moves forward, staying true to its DNA: offering useful, quality products designed to meet current needs without giving in to passing trends. It is often actual usage that dictates the brand’s directions — and in 2025, these are evolving rapidly.
Consumers are changing. The strength of home cooking now extends to takeaway, while traditional catering is reshaping its habits. In response to these shifts, Lacor refines its role: vacuum storage boxes, packaging adapted to batch cooking, stainless steel ranges designed for modern culinary practices, and reliable electrical appliances to complement them.
At the same time, demand for reliable and durable stainless steel cookware remains the strongest. The industry is pursuing robustness and trust, built in partnership with key retailers. Looking ahead, Christophe Decanter also calls for lucidity: the economy will remain fragile, and margins will have to be reinvented once kitchens become fully equipped. The post-COVID experience has left lessons of caution.
At Lacor, innovation is not just a slogan. It is a well-oiled mechanism, driven by useful, perfectly executed new products that respond to real needs. The company values quality over volume, and customer loyalty over marketing hype. This demand, combined with its industrial base in Spain, gives the brand a strong and distinctive positioning.
The story of Lacor is thus one of balance between heritage and constant adaptation. Its strength? Combining technological innovation with the historical reliability of its stainless steel ranges. A dual requirement that fuels sustainable growth and a solid reputation across both professional and consumer markets.
