Our story
🇫🇷 ProOrca: A legendary French brand since 1984 🇫🇷
For over 40 years, ProOrca has supported the greatest drummers in France. More than just a brand, it's a story rich in challenges and passions.
Founded in 1984 , ProOrca has left its mark on the world of drums with its exceptional sticks, but it has also weathered storms, nearly disappearing several times.
In 2013 , a long-standing employee, passionate about music, took over the company to bring it back to life.
Then, in 2024 , a new stage begins: Butch , a professional drummer, and Stéphanie Le Beuze , an entrepreneur in tech and CSR, take over ProOrca with an ambitious vision.

A new adventure as a duo
