“Quarter after quarter, the Rexel teams demonstrate their ability to deliver consistent profitable growth. It is particularly satisfying that this growth was achieved this past quarter despite a less favorable environment and on the back of a particularly high 2022 comparable base.
2023 is unfolding according to plan and we confirm our Full-Year guidance, which we upgraded in July. The second half should provide further affirmation that the Group’s transformation is delivering results. Our relentless focus on cash generation, efficiency and margin optimization is paying off, while our initiatives on fast-growing electrification segments, advanced services and digital are building differentiation and mid-term growth potential.”
Guillaume Texier, Chief Executive Officer of Rexel
