Retail market comments

'Superstores and supermarkets are the dominant store format in Italy. Numbers have been growing since 2002, however they remained broadly stable in 2007.'

'Cash & Carry Clubs form the smallest proportion of stores. They are accounted for by Metro and Carrefour’s Gross Iper format.'

'By the end of 2007, almost 500 more convenience and forecourt stores were in operation compared to 2002.'

'The discount sector continues to grow, with store numbers increasing by 17% between 2002-2007.'
