Antalis is a company working as a major player in the B-to-B distribution in Europe. In 2007, Antalis took control over its competitor MAP to become #1 in the paper distribution industry. This key strategic move allows it to expand its geographical coverage, rationalize its warehouse and distribution network, and benefit from economies of scale. In a mature industry, and knowing a steady decline in demand, this acquisition demonstrates the benefit of a strategy focused on the size and complementarity of activities. It prepares the company Antalis better than its direct competitors in the industry knowing turbulence since.
