BAFA S.A is French family business, established in 1946, which was mainly due to the presence in France, at the time, of so many US military vehicles. This created a special demand for screws and other fasteners for the maintenance of these vehicles. BAFA became known as a French specialist distributor of American ‘Inch’ fasteners and since then the company has not looked back.

To enable BAFA to continue to grow, and to due to us filling our storage area, in 2015 we invested in the building of a new headquarter with an even bigger warehouse. The additional 3,907m² enabled us to triple our storage capacity, so that we now have space for 2,256 pallet places. The new headquarters led to us developing a semi-automatic logistic system in order to reduce occupational health risks and increase in productivity.
