Highlights
US retailers account for 67% of international retailers' UK sales and Continental European retailers 28%, with food & grocery, health & beauty and clothing & footwear taking the greatest participation. Wal-Mart's ownership of Asda is a major factor in the US' share it not only has a high share in food & grocery, it is a major player in non-food.
Another big US retailer is set to have a major impact on the UK electricals sector. Best Buy Europe can only grow its share of the market significantly by taking sales from incumbent competitors. It has studied the UK market intensively and has a model that differentiates itself from competitors and delivers what UK consumers are demanding.
The highly fragmented clothing sector is attracting the most activity from international retailers, particularly the premium sector, but there is also greater activity in home related sectors, despite the difficulties these sectors have experienced following the credit crunch and the collapse of the UK housing market.
