Dille & Kamille is making its expansion to France more concrete: in May, the Dutch retailer will open its first store in Nantes, in collaboration with local partners.
Dynamic city
As CEO Hans Geels had already announced in 2023: Dille & Kamille is expanding to France. The chain will open its first French store on Wednesday 14 May, in the rue Boileau in Nantes. France is the fourth country for the retailer. “We notice that the French interest in sustainable, natural products is growing, and that our philosophy ties in well with the wishes of the French consumer”, Geels thinks.
Dille & Kamille is entering into a partnership with local entrepreneurs Cecile and Timothée Libersart, a French couple with whom the retailer has been preparing this step for five years. “We are happy that we can now open our first store in Nantes. The city has a rich culture and is also a dynamic centre of innovation. Nantes is known for its focus on sustainability and a broad audience of young families and students. We are convinced that Dille & Kamille will thrive here.”
Dille & Kamille currently has 51 branches: 28 in the Netherlands, 15 in Belgium and 8 in Germany. The webshop delivers to customers all over the world.
