Fnac

Fnac is a French retailer for books, music, games, electronics and household appliances, founded in 1954. Together with the appliance chain Darty it forms the group Fnac Darty, headquartered in Ivry-sur-Seine near Paris. Fnac sells online as well as in stores, so it is listed here for its large web shop.

Features

• Books, music, films, games, phones, computers, photo and household appliances.
• Online shop and marketplace with third-party sellers next to the own range.
• Click and collect in the group's stores in several European countries.

Ownership

The group is listed in Paris. Vesa Equity Investment, the holding of the Czech investor Daniel Křetínský, holds about 28.5 percent. In 2026 his EP Group launched a friendly tender offer to become the long-term majority shareholder, with closing expected in the second half of 2026. Both the current and the planned main owner are European. As with MediaMarkt, Fnac is a store chain first, so online range and service vary by country.
