Mathieu Debarges

Bringing a wealth of diverse experience to the Kidston team, Mathieu has an impressive 15 years in the fitness and leisure industry under his belt – not to mention a year in the world of pro-cycling (UCI) and qualifications that include a Masters in the Science and Techniques in Sports and Physical Activities.

Thanks to his natural enthusiasm and entrepreneurial spirit, in 2006 Mathieu launched his own personal training company, which he ran successfully for nine years. However, in 2015 he found himself longing for a fresh challenge.

Joining the Kidston team – where he concentrates on assisting customers with import, transport and registration – has allowed Mathieu to usefully engage his abundant reserves of energy, and capitalise on a lifelong passion for 'classic objects' that until now had focused on vintage cameras and hifi equipment.

Mathieu speaks French and English, and in his free time is often out on his bicycle, dreaming of the Alpine 110 he's set his heart on.
