    What the numbers show

    Outlets are spread out: the 8 largest metro areas hold 28% together, so most outlets sit outside the big cities.

    Selling into France

    Do not size for cafes and coffee shops

    Cafes and coffee shops are a smaller part of France than elsewhere; plan the pitch around the outlet types that lead here.

    Check social profiles

    Outlets in France link an Instagram account more often than elsewhere; their posts show menus, events and brands on display.

    Plan beyond the big cities

    Most outlets in France sit outside its largest metro areas, so a plan that stops at the big cities leaves most doors uncovered.
