This 2026 French decree approves the specifications governing the Société d'économie mixte SEMMARIS, which holds the exclusive right until 31 December 2068 to develop and manage the Paris-Rungis National Interest Market (MIN de Rungis). It formalizes the state's tight control over the company while authorizing a major expansion project called AGORALIM north of the Paris region. SEMMARIS must invest approximately €550 million in AGORALIM as part of a total €2.4 billion investment program from 2025-2068 to address site saturation, ensure food sovereignty for the Paris region, and support decarbonization goals. The decree defines investment obligations, public-service objectives (food security, environmental performance, territorial development), five-year evaluation cycles, stakeholder consultation requirements, asset ownership rules (all new assets in Zone A become state property), maintenance duties, and the free return of all assets to the state in good condition at the end of the concession in 2068.
