Description
PCE services, a French fibre-optic deployment company, was liquidated on 28 January 2026 by the Lille Court, rendering of 200 employees redundant, including 90 employees based at its headquarters in Parigny.
Despite its growth in the last few years, the company faced a decrease in new contracts, as well as the extended payment deadlines of its primary client. The 200 positions lost include technical staff involved in fibre deployment as well as administrative and head office functions.
Founded in 2011, PCE experienced rapid growth, expanding from 50 employees and €5 million in turnover in 2019 to 330 employees and €55 million in turnover in 2023.
