Electricals and furniture sales have already been impacted by the slowdown in mature markets, and luxury will not prove immune to the downturn. As a result, PPR is positioning itself to survive difficult conditions in 2009.

Carrefour is reportedly looking to acquire Russia's Seventh Continent. While the bid is unconfirmed, Carrefour could enter the Russian market with a bang, acquiring a network of 140 outlets. However, such a brash market entry would impose significant rebranding costs if Carrefour intends to implement the single-brand approach that has worked so well for the retailer in other new markets.

Casino had a buoyant year in 2008, with sales rising 14.9% to E28.7 billion and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization up 8.5% to E1.9 billion. Diversification played a fundamental role in this success, allowing the company to cater to changing consumer behavior in France.

French grocery chains have reported a mixed set of results for the first half of 2009. While the large and outdated hypermarket format continues to underperform, convenience formats are driving growth. Despite the resilience of smaller format stores, most of the large French grocers still rely on hypermarkets for the bulk of their turnover, which is dragging down overall sales performance.

Following the success of Auchan's Radouga discount hypermarket concept in Russia, the retailer has opened an adapted version in France. The store aims to meet consumer demand for permanently discounted prices and will reduce Auchan's costs by cutting out staffed counters. The format will act as a revitalization model for underperforming hypermarkets in the group's portfolio.
