Kingfisher is a leading home improvement retailer operating under the retail banners of B&Q and Screwfix in the U.K and Brico Depot and Castorama in France, while also expanding in other European markets. Kingfisher has attempted multiple strategies to optimize its product offering and leverage its leading position in the French and British home improvement market with little success delivering excess economic returns.
Demand for Kingfisher’s home improvement products stands to benefit from aging housing stock in the U.K. and France, as well as energy and water-saving products.
Higher interest rates and a deteriorating macroeconomic picture has lowered demand for home improvement products, requiring promotional activities to drive sales.
