We think GBH could become a candidate to acquire Monaco-based Mercure’s supermarket network across West Africa, which also includes the Casino franchise. In recent years Mercure, which acquired the former Score supermarket chain in francophone West Africa in 1994 (subsequently converted to the Casino fascia) has struggled to impose itself in the face of several new entrants in the supermarket sector in francophone West Africa, including Dia, Spar, Carrefour, Auchan and Super U (although Mercure is the Super U franchise holder in Senegal). Mercure also partners with Prosuma, Casino’s Ivorian franchise holder, another potential GBH target. Trendtype thinks Mercure is strategically more geared towards developing shopping malls and its growing portfolio of premium non-food brands.
