B&M Sees Revenue Growth Boosted by France

Discount retailer B&M reported a 2% increase in first-quarter group revenue, driven by strong growth in France and a recovery at Heron Foods, which compensated for a decline in like-for-like sales in its core UK business.

Discount retailer B&M has announced a 2% rise in its first-quarter group revenue, attributing this growth largely to robust performance in France.

The company's strong results from its French operations and a rebound at Heron Foods helped counterbalance declining like-for-like sales within its primary UK business.

The figures highlight the organization's capacity to leverage international markets and diversification to sustain revenue amidst domestic challenges.
