Brands, distributors, and retailers — all sides of the story
Guaranteed retail success for Meta across EMEA.
“You guys were the backbone of our operation from day one — and in terms of agencies available in this space, you're the best. Point blank.”
Goetz Lehnig
General Manager Retail Sales
Perfecting European retail for Shokz.
“We opened on almost 110 stores within four months — which surprised me a lot at the time. I don't think there's any distributor or agency doing a better job than nonplusultra.”
Thomas Zhang
Sales Director Europe
Driving retail impact with SumUp across Europe.
“You essentially became part of our team. You soaked up the brand DNA — brought it to your retail contacts and made them part of our success. That was the key factor for scaling across multiple countries and years.”
Burkhard Triebel
VP Growth
Data-driven market entry for XGIMI in EMEA.
“When I look at those 120 stores, we created a very detailed plan — store level, SKU level, accessory level. That actually improved our sell-out by 3, 4, 5×. Their data and retail analytics setup is definitely one of their USPs.”
Aleksandar Naum
Director DACH
Bringing iFixit into mainstream European retail.
“The work and relationship with nonplusultra is very efficient and very creative — they understand our mission and make my life a lot easier.”
Rod Stohrer

Andreas Roth
Director Distribution
What great brand partnerships look like inside Europe's largest CE retailer.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
nonplusultra manages the full European retail operation for consumer electronics brands: distribution, field sales, data intelligence, and marketplace management, as a single embedded team across EMEA. 50+ brands launched across EMEA since 2015, from scale-ups to global corporations, with 100+ specialists on the ground.
Four key reasons. Speed: brands we onboard go from contract to first shelf in 4–6 months, versus 12–18 months building from scratch. Risk reduction: 11-year track record, 25+ active clients, 50+ brands since 2015. Convenience: five services (distributor onboarding, retailer listing, field sales, data reporting, compliance) from one team. Results: 200% YoY for Shokz over four years, 97% POS compliance for Meta, 1,500+ stores for SumUp in year one. The numbers are public.
We operate across EMEA with particular depth in Central Europe (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands), North Europe (UK, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland), South Europe (France, Italy, Spain, Portugal), Eastern Europe (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Croatia), and the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar).
Typically 4–6 months from contract signing to first product on shelf, depending on the category and target retailers. Our Starlink partnership is a benchmark: we launched across all major consumer electronics retailers in Europe — online and offline, including POS displays — within 4 months.
This is our core strength. We've taken multiple US and APAC brands into European retail from scratch, handling local compliance, distributor relationships, retailer onboarding, and in-store execution.

Perspectives & Press
The Circular Economy Is Now a Shelf Access Issue for Tech Brands in EMEA
Elgiganten is targeting 5% circular share of business by 2027-28. Elkjøp repairs 500,000 units annually. European retailers are not just building circular infrastructure — they are beginning to use it as a listing criterion. For tech brands planning EMEA retail access in 2026-27, the absence of a circular programme is no longer a sustainability gap. It is a commercial risk.

The Nordic market offers some of the highest consumer electronics spending per capita in Europe, but entry costs are steep, pricing is brutally transparent, and retailer concentration in some markets means a single buyer relationship can define your success or failure in the region. Here is what earning a position there actually requires.

The European consumer electronics market grew 5% in value in FY2025 but only 1% in volume, according to NielsenIQ market data. That gap is not a recovery — it is a structural sorting. Memory component prices surged 75% year-on-year in February 2026, AI now accounts for 10% of consumer product search touchpoints, and a supply shock in the Strait of Hormuz is the largest disruption in a generation. The brands that will win EMEA retail in 2026–27 are not the ones reacting to each headline. They are the ones who built structural presence when the cost was highest.
