Founded in 1922, it includes record labels, producers, and other stakeholders involved in the production and distribution of music. SNEP plays a crucial role in promoting the rights of its members and advocating for fair practices within the industry. One of SNEP's key functions is to track music sales and compile charts, such as the SNEP Singles Chart and SNEP Albums Chart. These charts provide insights into popular music trends in France. Additionally, SNEP is involved in copyright issues, ensuring that artists and producers receive proper compensation for their work.
