The European pool sector is witnessing a real triumph of French service quality. Indeed, the Piscines Ibiza franchise made a spectacular entry. It participated for the first time in the large scale annual survey conducted by the economic magazine Capital. It immediately clinched the third place in the highly coveted Capital Best Brands 2026 ranking. This distinction concerns the Pool Builders and Pool and Spa Equipment Suppliers category. The brand obtained the excellent score of 7.81/10.
Piscines Ibiza into the Capital ranking
This ranking is much more than simple recognition. It is a rigorous evaluation. It is published annually in partnership with the independent institute Statista. This study relies on the frank and direct opinion of more than 15,000 consumers. They were invited to rate and judge more than 1,800 French brands. The evaluation is based on three fundamental criteria that touch the heart of the customer relationship.
Firstly, the concrete desire to recommend the brand to one’s circle is taken into account. Secondly, the attention and personalization given to the clientele are examined. Finally, the perceived level of technical expertise is evaluated.
A Recognition that Speaks Directly to European Professionals
For any professional in the sector, this distinction constitutes a dazzling validation by the most demanding general public. It attests to the relevance of a solid business model. This model is entirely based on an exceptional customer relationship, personalized and warm support, as well as recognized technical expertise. In this regard, Mathieu Combes, CEO of Piscines Ibiza, expresses it with disarming clarity. He affirms “We do not just sell a pool, we sell a life project.” He continues by emphasizing the essence of their success. According to him “This trust is earned in the field through kept promises, respect for commitments, and the passion for a job well done. At Piscines Ibiza, it is this human relationship that makes all the difference.”
A Rapidly Expanding Network and a Proven Concept
It is essential to understand that behind this commercial and human success lies a remarkably efficient industrial and logistics concept. Since the launch of its franchise model in 2019, Piscines Ibiza has experienced a dazzling rise. The company already has more than 40 active points of sale in France. It is pursuing rapid and controlled development. This success relies on several industrial and operational pillars. Firstly, there is 100% French manufacturing carried out in two ultra modern and robotized factories.
These produce nearly 3,000 polyester shells per year thanks to an exclusive, globally unique simultaneous projection process. Furthermore, the concept includes a strong promise to the end customer. This is an express installation carried out in only four days. Comprehensive product and installation guarantees for a turnkey project are included. Lifetime support and monitoring of the pool are also offered. Not to mention a genuine eco responsible approach aimed at limiting the company’s carbon footprint.
A Strong Signal for the European Market
Consequently, many German, Belgian, Swiss, Austrian, or Dutch professionals and entrepreneurs are actively looking for reliable industrial partners. They want a strong brand and a proven franchise concept. This direct entry onto the podium of the most prestigious French ranking therefore sends a clear and unambiguous message. Piscines Ibiza stands out as a key player. Its model, proven by the French clientele, is ready to write the next pages of its development beyond the borders of France. It is undeniably a brand to follow very closely in 2026 and beyond. It represents a strategic partnership opportunity for the European industry.
