As part of an ongoing expansion plan, the French retailer entered the Spanish market in 2006 and has grown its retail presence to five Bricorama stores there.

          Competitive Landscape Brief

          Demand is driven mainly by residential real estate construction and renovation. The profitability of individual companies depends on merchandising and customer service. Large companies enjoy economies of scale in purchasing and have the ability to offer more products. Small companies can compete effectively by catering to contractors, by offering specialty products and services, and by serving areas unattractive to larger companies because of limited customer concentration.
