(Germany, United Kingdom, Spain…). Currently positioned 10th in the world in a sectoral project that aims to make France one of the largest furniture exporting countries by 2021.

But what are the keys to success for international development in this favorable and buoyant market?
One of the keys to success in developing internationally lies essentially in the ability of brands to organize themselves in order to pool approach costs. Indeed, opening up to an external market cannot be improvised, it is therefore essential for the networks to define their product positioning, to analyze the market and competing companies, to know the needs of local consumers, to train their teams, to control risks (payment, quality), to share their experiences and best practices.

A strategy well understood by the Vendée furniture manufacturer Gautier, who took part a few weeks ago in the Shanghai furniture fair . Indeed, the Vendée brand, which has succeeded in its incursion into the international market, essentially targeting emerging markets, has decided to position itself in countries with high potential, which are still not very popular with large companies. A profitable strategy which now makes exports nearly 30% of the group’s activity . A development policy that allows the Gautier network to expand its market (the brand recently opened new points of sale in Vienna and Singapore and is looking for new franchisees in Colombia ) and to promote the “French Touch”.

Indeed, present in nearly 25 countries with more than 460 stores abroad , the Schmidt Group is a perfect illustration of the promotion of “made by France” offers, in the general public sphere as well as in the highly competitive private and public markets. The brand, whose export is now part of its DNA, has been able to conquer the international market by focusing in particular on supporting its companies internationally (assistance, networking, etc.) with appropriate and innovative tools ( studies, export training, etc.). As proof, the group has opened a new point of sale in Norway in recent months , but also inSpain , or in Belgium .
