Mercier built bicycles of this name from 1932, and mopeds around 1953. The Mercier Vacance was badged as a Pelissier.
Francis Pélissier was widely regarded as the greatest French racing cyclist of the 1920s. He worked with the Mercier firm for some years, and later with La Perle as directeur sportif until 1955.
