LONG SAS is an established, family-owned French manufacturing business that has been designing, producing, and marketing a comprehensive range of industrial presses under the EMG brand for over 50 years. Based in Marigny St Marcel, France, the company employs 40 people and is currently managed by the second and third generations of the Long family. EMG has maintained a strong international presence for 25 years through an extensive network of distributors across many European countries and the USA. The company features a specialized in-factory showroom and design office to offer free custom application trials, testing videos, and tailored modifications based on their existing product catalogue.

Products

The company offers a diverse range of high-quality industrial presses, which are divided into two distinct product families:

  • Bench Presses: This category includes manual presses, pneumatic presses, and marking presses. These are simple, easy-to-use machines designed for straightforward, everyday workshop applications.
  • Machine Tools: This category includes advanced hydropneumatics presses and mechanical presses built with highly robust, premium-quality components for heavy-duty industrial tasks.

Additionally, with the support of their internal design office, they can offer customized and special presses tailored to specific client needs, provided they are based on an existing model from their range.

Target market

The target market spans a massive variety of sectors, depending on the product line:

  • For Bench Presses: While industrial clients make up 75% of sales, the target market includes almost any factory or workshop performing assembly, ring/bearing inserting, small bending, or light cutting operations. Examples include luxury leather goods  (Vuitton, Hermès), shoe manufacturing, chiropodists (sole cutting), soap shaping, smartphone shell cutting, cardboard embossing, and bicycle assembly.
  • For Machine Tools: The target market consists of highly specialized customers in cold metalworking, stamping subcontractors, or manufacturers who integrate presses directly into their production lines (cutting, bending, stamping, etc.). This includes specific high-end sectors such as watchmaking (Rolex, Tag Heuer), connectors, electronics, household appliances, eyewear, electrical equipment, jewelry, and locksmithing.

 

Ideal Profile

Ideal Candidate Profile

The ideal candidates are independent commercial agents or distributors who possess active access to industrial networks, workshops, cold metalworking companies, or stamping subcontractors. Depending on whether they focus on family 1 or family 2, they should be comfortable with either high-volume, rapid-cycle industrial sales (Bench Presses) or managing high-budget technical B2B accounts (Machine Tools).

Why This Opportunity is Attractive

 

  • Proven Brand Heritage: Candidates will represent a highly stable, 50-year-old European brand with an active 25-year history in international trade.
  • Unmatched Competitive Edge: Against German competitors in the bench press market, EMG wins on simplicity, ease of use, and highly competitive pricing for straightforward applications. Against Italian competitors in the machine tool market, EMG stands out for its exceptional structural robustness and the premium quality of its components.
  • Strong Operational Backing: The agent is fully supported by an internal design office capable of modifying existing presses for specific client needs, as well as a factory showroom that conducts free product validation testing and video trials for potential clients.
  • Extensive Multilingual Marketing Support: EMG provides robust digital support with a website fully translated into multiple regional languages, an active LinkedIn and YouTube presence, complete printed product catalogs (including paper catalogs in Portuguese), and practical brochures designed to easily hand out during sales visits.
