France Retail Market Growth
Growth of online shopping, incorporation of ethical business practices, and the entrance of a large number of new market players are some of the major market drivers. The increasing consumer interest in sustainable and ethical business practices is encouraging retailers to implement eco-friendly initiatives, including reducing packaging waste, ethically sourcing products, and minimising carbon footprints.
New retail formats like pop-up stores, experiential retail spaces, and digital-only brands are on the rise as these formats are designed to meet the changing consumer demand for unique shopping experiences and convenience.
