MARKET ENTRY OR GROWTH

Maximum impact through targeted segmentation

Not all types of industry are the same, and not all sites are the same.
Differences in these areas are crucial for establishing the offer in the right place at the right time.
In-depth knowledge of the market in terms of location and content significantly optimizes the chances of success.
As the European market leader, we have extensive experience and comprehensive knowledge.

Market entry into Europe

The first step into a European target market often determines the success of an entire strategy. We are aware of this responsibility and are happy to provide you with consultancy services.

Expansion within Europe

Growth within a country or the pursuit of a cross-border strategy is supported by analysis, support and realization. Everything from a single source.

Best Practice

Your growth takes place with us

Many companies that have launched regionally or even nationally in their own countries have realized their growth strategies in Europe with the significant involvement of ECE Marketplaces. Want some examples?

Brand entry into Europe

Hollister, USA Leisure & jeans fashion

The "Hollister" concept, which belongs to the US fashion company Abercrombie & Fitch, was launched in Germany in 2009 - in Hamburg's Elbe Einkaufszentrum.

Hollister offers surfer-style fashion. The target group is teenagers and young or young-at-heart adults: an important proportion of ECE's regular customers. 

For this reason, the market entry into Europe in Germany was largely carried out via ECE Marketplaces.

Hollister and its sister brand "Gilly Hicks" currently operate a total of around 40 stores in Germany, more than half of them in ECE Marketplaces alone - in Hamburg, Munich, Cologne and Dresden, for example.

Further European Hollister sites at ECE (in Poland, Italy, the Czech Republic, Turkey, Spain, Denmark, Germany) are regularly under discussion.

National Expansion

Rituals, Netherlands Cosmetics & lifestyle products

The Dutch beauty & wellness company has grown rapidly in Germany through its central business partner ECE Marketplaces.

In addition to its market size, Germany has a comparatively strong wellness culture in Europe. Ideal conditions for the Dutch cosmetics and lifestyle brand to initially develop nationally there - with the help of the market leader: Rituals now operates more than 70 stores in German ECE centers.  

Rituals also benefits from the European ECE portfolio with access to sites in Austria, the Czech Republic and Poland, most recently with the opening in the Silesia City Center Katowice in Poland.
