The group, which celebrated its 110th anniversary last year, has announced, via a press release, the forthcoming arrival at its head of Alexandre Barrière, aged 36 and son of the current CEO, Dominique Desseigne.

 

He will be appointed Chairman of the Société de participation deauvillaise (SPD), the family holding company that owns 60% of Groupe Lucien Barrière (GLB). In addition, Alexandre Barrière will hold, “in concert with the family, a 60.51% stake in the capital of Société fermière du casino municipal de Cannes (SFCMC)” and “has a vocation to hold all of the family’s shareholdings”.

 

“The family has agreed to a change in the group’s governance and the terms of its shareholding”, the statement said.

 

Joy Desseigne-Barrière, Dominique Desseigne’s daughter and Alexandre’s sister, will be appointed chairman of the board of SFCMC and Société Immobilière et d’Exploitation de l’Hôtel Majestic (SIEHM). The appointment of this 32-year-old woman “will be subject to the approval of their boards of directors”.

 

A six-fold increase in revenues

 

Current CEO Dominique Desseigne will be appointed Honorary Chairman of the group. Over the last fifteen years, under his presidency, the group’s revenues have increased sixfold.

 

The group is the leader in France and Europe in the casino market, a benchmark in luxury hotels and a global player in leisure and entertainment. It has 32 casinos and a gaming club, 19 luxury hotels and more than 140 restaurants, 3 golf courses and employs some 6,500 people. In 2022, its revenues reached 1.3 billion euros.

 

“A general management team will accompany this new organization”, the press release said, adding that “discussions are being finalized concerning the exit of the Fimalac group from the capital of GLB and SFCMC in favor of (the family holding company) SPD.”

 

Fimalac, the holding company of Marc Ladreit de Lacharrière, which replaced Accor in the capital, currently holds 40% of the capital of the Lucien Barrière group.
