Usine de petit matériel électrique, établissement administratif, dite usine Gillette, actuellement siège social du Crédit mutuel Savoie Mont-Blanc

In the 1950s, Gillette decided to establish a manufacturing plant in Annecy, France, in collaboration with the National Planning Department. The city approved this development on April 5, 1951, viewing it as a potential economic boost. The new facility was designed to produce over 2 million razor blades daily, replacing the existing plant in Paris. The design was executed by architects Jacques Labro, René Haupt, and Dives, with construction taking place between 1953 and 1954. Operations ceased in the early 1990s, and since December 1992, the building has served as the headquarters of the Regional Federation of Crédit Mutuel in Savoie and Haute-Savoie.
