Eurelia, European Federation of International retailers

Faced with the many diversities of the European retail market ( real estate practices, striucture of shopping in individual towns, level of maturity of commerce in those towns, level of economic development, …), Eurelia offers a unique European support structure for retail chains who are currently expanding or plan to expand in Europe: a Federation of International retailers.

Created more than 15 years ago, in 2005, the Federation represents more than 80 members and 22.000 stores throughout Europe (French stores excluded). It welcomes all chains, whatever nationality and backgroung (franchise, privately-owned stores, master-franchising…).
For Spanish and Portuguese retailers, Eurelia has developed from the beginning an exclusive partnership with the Barcelona-based consulting firm Retail &Trade Marketing.

Our Missions as a Federation:

To provide members with strategic advice on their store locations,

To develop valuable support for them (up-dated reports, data-bases, country research…) so that they can better approach their target markets

To deal with development issues on a European scale

To foster data exchanges between the members

A place to receive advice and share experiences, when considering a European development
