My name is Jean-Francois, and welcome to Richer Automation.
For 30 years, I’ve cultivated three passions: learning, growing, and contributing to our customers’ success.
If you’re a seasoned entrepreneur, you already know the keys to lasting success are Innovation and Marketing.
Why Customization Matters?
76% of customers, including yours, get frustrated with a lack of personalization.
Customizable products are no longer just an option—they’re necessary to stay competitive.
Our Mission
At Richer Automation, our vision is to help businesses involved in physical product development thrive, despite the ever-increasing demand for product personalization and the complexity that comes along with it.
Sharing the practical expertise we’ve amassed over 30 years of obsessing over strategic product development process automation, we are actively creating a future where entrepreneurs don’t just keep up but excel and lead and generate sustainable profitability.
Our Expertise
After 30 years of unwavering dedication in the field, we’ve seen firsthand how strategic CAD/CAM automation can revolutionize a business, elevate its potential, and open doors to levels of growth and efficiency that most wouldn’t believe possible. Yet, it makes us unbelievably sad to witness how few entrepreneurs are truly aware of this. Despite the tools and knowledge being within reach, most remain unaware of the immense power this strategy holds to take their business to the next level.

16 years of a family adventure in the Dominican Republic.
Positioning: What makes us different? Two profound things:
Hard Skills: Obsessing about it for long enough, there are no projects that are too complex for us anymore. Our vision, our implementation strategies, our understanding of the technology behind the magic and our winning mindset sets us apart. We are successfully managing automation projects including billions of billions of possible configurations for a single product line.
Soft skills: Our 30 years in the field also taught us that even the best families have communication problems. We came to realize that it’s never just about technology—it’s always about bridging the gap between tech experts who can build complex solutions and business leaders who need those solutions to align with their vision.
