Bus/Financial - Einzelhandel / DIY market | | Französisch Begriff oder Satz: commerce de détail des négociants | In a description of a DIY product distributor, which sources products from Asia and sells them to DIY retailers and trade outlets, which then sell them to end customers. The quotes are in the original text:
Si la concurrence semble plus forte chez les négociants, qui sont le canal de distribution historique pour de nombreuses marques, XXX a cependant su capter une part importante de la partie «commerce de détail» des négociants, avec une part de marché estimée à environ 45%.
The "négociants" are trade outlets (selling only to professionals).
I have typically understood "commerce de détail" to mean retail, as separate from B2B or the professional customers frequenting "négociants." So any suggestions for "commerce de détail des négociants"?
Note - This is not trade outlets which also sell to individuals, because that is discussed under a different section of the document ("Une partie des négoces s'est ouvert récemment au grand public...").
Thank you in advance! |

Is it possible that we are talking about a "négociant" - for arguments sake and in a French context, say "Point P" selling in bulk (but in less bulk than it buys!) to your local corner d-i-y shop?
Sylvia Smith: 2:32pm Nov 22, 2006: Hello Marc. Thank you for the note; sorry to give you a headache... Assuming your hypothesis is correct, what would you suggest for a translation?

some thoughts...
I'm not sure you have to exclude "retail" here on the grounds it is mentioned later in the document; perhaps the text is discussing two separate phenomena related to wholesalers (trade outlets) who also conduct retail operations (either in the same store or in separate outlets or through other partners)

| sales by such outlets to retailers
Erklärung:
Assuming, and only assuming, that my comment above is correct Sylvia, then your para. should read:
While competition seems to be more intense among the trade outlets, which are the traditional distribution channel for numerous brands, xxxx does seem to have been able to gain a sizeable proportion of sales by such outlets to retailers, its market share in this sector being estimated at around 45%.
