Edit after the fact: called my ex-boss, she kindly reminded me that as a company we would store goods for months and sell them during "les Soldes", so yeah you get twice a year a 6-weeks period to offload your stock.

Sorry for the confusion. Note that this only applies to non-perishable goods, food for instance is treated differently. Each sector in France falls under different regulation, it's a mess, very hard to navigate.
