OUR STRATEGY

Rexel group officially released REXEL 2020 STRATEGIC ROADMAP on February 11th, 2016. The roadmap specifies Rexel Ambitions, clarifies four Business Imperatives for profitable growth, and explains the Targets.

Building on a market-leading position to seize growth opportunities

In recent years, Rexel has significantly invested and reinforced its commercial and operational capabilities, thus creating a unique platform to capitalize on new trends, technologies and applications:
· the energy transition is generating a broad spectrum of new business opportunities along the value chain,
· the Internet of Things is turning connectivity into a converging space of new digitally powered solutions,
· and the drivers of urbanization are changing the landscape of building renovation and new construction.
Implementing a differentiating customer-centric strategy

Rexel has been turning from a branch-centric to a truly customer-centric multi-channel business model designed around specific customer segments. This leads to higher contact frequency with customers at multiple touch points as well as higher transaction value and better service levels, with increasingly connected customers. Meanwhile, Rexel is a multi-specialist value-added partner, serving the market in a differentiated way through six distinct Customer Delivery Models
Driving innovation in marketing, digital, and operations

Innovation is now a critical success factor and this heightened focus will be reflected in Rexel capital expenditure on:
· Marketing: offer new value propositions, industrial automation solutions, as well as its investments in value-based pricing and project management systems
· Digital: develop digitally powered multi-channel business model via the e-business platform, and develop new tools (eg. SmartVan) to improve our customers productivity
· Operations: optimize back-office and supply chain performance and provide differentiating logistics services thanks to the new IT and logistics structure
Accelerating profitable growth through targeted M&A

Capitalizing on its track record of acquiring and integrating bolt-on acquisitions (24 acquisitions since 2012 ie. €1.2bn in acquired sales), Rexel will implement a two-pronged M&A strategy aimed at:
· Expanding into new growth areas and/or adjacencies,
· Strengthening its position and/or leveraging scale in core markets. Rexel targets accretive acquisitions over the 2016-2020 period.

In 2014, Rexel China in partnership with Maverlinn and with the support of the Rexel Foundation installed a solar energy facility, able to provide clean, stable and safe energy for the 230 children of the remote San Xing Elementary School located in the Hebei province. This partnership was a great success bringing both positive social and environmental impacts - improving education for underprivileged children, and reducing CO2 emissions (after 9 months, 2.1 tons of CO2 emissions have been avoided).

About the Rexel Foundation:
Launched in 2013, the Rexel Foundation for a better energy, under the aegis of Fondation de France, aims to “improve access to energy efficiency for all’.

By helping its customers consume less and better, Rexel is putting sustainable development at the core of its business.

Energy control and energy efficiency are key leverage points in the fight against climate change and the depletion of fossil fuels. Rexel is committed to developing solutions that will enable buildings and industries to control their energy consumption while improving their performance.
As a leading player in the electrical equipment and services market, Rexel China is adopting and installing the eco-efficient solutions it distributes to its customers at its sites. In May 2015, Rexel China headquarters moved to a more energy efficient building (with solar panels, LEDs, control systems etc.) located in the North of Shanghai.

To encourage frontline employees to adopt best practices and inform our partners about our commitment, the Rexel Environmental Charter is posted at all Rexel China sites. This charter is composed of 3 pillars:
- - Improve the environmental performance of our buildings
- - Reduce the environmental footprint of our operations
- - Develop and promotion solutions for energy efficiency
