Centre de Montage et de Recuperation (C.M.R.), Neuilly-sur-Seine
Built motorcycle sidecar combinations and solos after the war from BMW parts in a German warehouse in Paris, using mostly BMW R 12 and R 71 engines.
During the war components were sourced from some twenty French companies, with BMW co-ordinating efforts from their offices on the Champs-Élysées.
In May of 1945 most of the Germans had fled and a number of French technicians took over production, with the the newly formed company moving to Neuilly-sur-Seine.
