2024 European commerce media networks database

How big is the retail media industry in Europe? How many retail media networks are there? Who are the top networks in the industry?

The retail media market is booming, with both online-only players (like Zalando or Cdiscount) and brick-and-mortar stores (like Carrefour or Tesco) launching their advertising networks.

Global/local brands and agencies are finding it increasingly difficult to navigate this space with numerous options like Unlimitail, Boots Media Group or Otto Advertising.

At mimbi, we decided to collect as much data as possible and share it with the community. As this is a fast moving environment, we also expect the community to help us update, correct and evolve this table to make it a collaborative database that everyone can use.

‍For now, you’ll find more than 100+ commerce media networks in  EMEA with public data we collect (last update November, 2024) for each of them that you can filter.

What are the largest Retail Media Networks in Europe?

To date, we account for more than 100 retail media networks in Europe, and that number is growing every day. These networks can be operated by online pure-players and/or brick-and-mortar retailers, using in-house technology or technology from vendors such as Criteo, Citrus or Dunnhumby.

What geographies are covered by the Retail Media Networks listed on mimbi’s index?

We focus primarily on the US and European markets (top markets are the UK, Germany and France), with partial coverage of LATAM and APAC. Smaller markets are particularly interesting when they are dominated by local retailers that global brands may not necessarily know about. See our full index
