Supermarkets in France

The supermarket sector in France saw both store numbers and current value sales stagnate in 2024. While lockdowns in 2020 and early 2021 briefly boosted their appeal - thanks to their proximity, smaller formats, and click-and-collect services - these advantages faded as inflation drove consumers towards discounters, hypermarkets, and variety stores, while demand for e-commerce declined.

Euromonitor International's Supermarkets in France report offers insight into key trends and developments driving the industry. The report examines all retail channels to provide sector insight. Channels include hypermarkets, supermarkets, discounters, convenience stores, mixed retailers, health and beauty retailers, clothing and footwear retailers, furniture and furnishing stores, DIY and hardware stores, durable goods retailers, leisure and personal goods retailers. There are profiles of leading retailers, with analysis of their performance and the challenges they face. There is also analysis of non-store retailing: vending; homeshopping; internet retailing; direct selling, as available.

Data coverage: market sizes (historic and forecasts), company shares, brand shares and distribution data.
