The removals industry encompasses all companies involved in transferring goods from one property to another.
Generally speaking, a move takes place when an individual moves house. However, moving is a much broader activity, which can be international and involve companies (wishing to change premises, for example).
The removals sector in France represents sales worth several billion euros, shared between numerous local players and a few particularly important franchises(Les Déménageurs bretons, Demeco...).
The mobility of French people remains important, but is tending to change shape, moving more and more out of the cities. Movers must therefore adapt to this new demand. In particular, the covid pandemic has partly altered the perception of "city living" for many French people.
The digitalization of the industry (online quotes, self-help platforms, etc.) is another challenge facing the sector. A number of players are emerging, based on products that facilitate the moving process (Souscritoo's paperwork management) or by offering targeted services, such as self-moving packages.
