Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves4 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Emerging players

• Capifrance: Capifrance is a French network of independent commercial real estate agents covering retail and business transactions. It is comparable in serving the SME retail transaction market but competes via a distributed agent model rather than vertical specialization.
• Avenir Entreprise / TransEntreprise: TransEntreprise (formerly operating under various French business transfer brands) is a French online platform and intermediary for SME business sales across retail and services. Comparable as a smaller, broader-based business broker rather than a niche specialist.

Broad incumbents

• CBRE France: CBRE France is one of the largest commercial real estate services firms operating in France with retail leasing and investment sales capabilities. It is comparable as a broad incumbent in commercial real estate brokerage, but does not focus on SME salon transactions.
• JLL France: JLL France is a major global real estate services firm with a retail brokerage practice operating in Paris and across major French cities. Comparable as a large commercial real estate incumbent, though focused on larger mandates than Cabinet B. Pottier's SME salon transactions.
• BNP Paribas Real Estate Transaction: BNP Paribas Real Estate is a large French commercial real estate advisory with retail investment and transaction capabilities across France. It competes for larger retail/business sale mandates but does not specialize in small salon-level transactions.
• Cushman & Wakefield France: Cushman & Wakefield operates a retail and capital markets brokerage in France, comparable to Cabinet B. Pottier only at the high end of the market. It represents a broad incumbent rather than a niche specialist.

Direct peers

• Cession Commerce: Cession Commerce is a French online marketplace and intermediary for the sale and purchase of small businesses and fonds de commerce. It overlaps directly with Cabinet B. Pottier's transaction intermediation role, but operates horizontally across many retail categories rather than specializing in hairdressing.
• Arthur Loyd: Arthur Loyd is a French commercial real estate brokerage network with a strong retail and commerce (fonds de commerce) transaction practice. While broader than Cabinet B. Pottier's single-vertical focus, it is the most comparable French retail/business brokerage competitor for SME transactions in regional France.

Others

• Orpi France: Orpi is a large French real estate network with some retail and commercial capabilities. It is included as a thematic adjacency rather than a direct competitor, since its core focus is residential rather than SME commercial transactions.
• SBA Compta: SBA Compta is a French accounting and business services firm with a dedicated pole for hairdressers and beauty professionals. It is a strategic referral partner of Cabinet B. Pottier rather than a competitor, but is comparable in serving the same hairdressing vertical with adjacent services.
