In 2019, our store brands have kept growing steadily, and we have made progress in strengthening our business lines: the integration of Bricorama in our “Household Equipment” cluster is a good illustration of this. We continue the deep transformation of our Group in order to adapt to the changes in retail and consumption, which shows the evolution of our “Mobility” cluster. With our “Producers & Retailers” model we have also opted for approaches that make no compromises regarding environmental and social challenges, such as the launching of Franco-Score. We have kept investing in the modernisation of our joint tools: our plants, our integrated logistics network and our IT systems. This year of our fiftieth anniversary, 200 entrepreneurs joined us, trustful in the strength of our exclusive model and our wide perspectives.

Chairman of Groupement Les Mousquetaires,
Household Equipment store brands: the model of the future for DIY independent players.
In Europe, the 3 household equipment brands of the Mousquetaires represented a turnover of 3.59 billion euros.
At international level, Bricomarché recorded very significant turnover increases: +8.6% in Portugal and +10.7% in Poland.
In France in 2019, Bricomarché, Bricorama and Brico Cash were the first convenience network of independent retailers. The three store brands altogether recorded a turnover of 2.87 billion euros and increased by 2.60% at comparable selling areas, overperforming for the third consecutive year the 1.80% market increase at comparable selling areas (source: Unibal/FMB). This shows the attractiveness of the stores for the consumers and the model relevance that has been adopted by almost 100 new entrepreneurs since the integration of Bricorama.
Mobility store brands: a portfolio of complementary brands that is rapidly developing
The Mousquetaires’ brand portfolio is now made of 4 complementary specialist brands: Roady car centres, Rapid Pare-Brise window repair centres, American Car Wash centres, and for several months now, Izyscoot, the expert in two-wheeled and urban vehicles.
