The gateway to
French retail.

PARANGON is France's primary GDSN-certified data pool, operated by Agena3000 since its acquisition from GS1 France in August 2018. It serves as the central hub for product data exchange between manufacturers and retailers in the French market.

With over 734,000 GTINs registered and 3,900+ companies connected, PARANGON is the mandatory integration point for any brand looking to supply major French retailers. Agena3000 holds ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications, ensuring enterprise-grade security and quality.

Syncra's GDSN France connector provides a fully automated integration with PARANGON, eliminating the need for manual data entry, custom EDI setups, or expensive GDSN consultants.
