Eurocash Group has crossed the halfway mark of its 2026-27 strategic transformation, securing PLN 279 million (€64.5 million) in annual savings towards its PLN 400 million (€92.5 million) goal, despite a challenging macroeconomic landscape in Poland’s FMCG sector. The Polish wholesaler centralised five purchasing departments and operating structures into single units, reduced warehouse SKUs from 13,000 to 10,800, and streamlined its distribution network from 15 centres down to ten. The company scaled back unprofitable retail operations, closing 14 of 16 targeted cash-and-carry locations. The proximity and convenience channels grew by 3.3% year on year, while the Eurocash soft-franchise banner had expanded its market share by 2.5 percentage points since Q2 2024. Eurocash retreated from corporate retail by closing 105 company-owned Delikatesy Centrum stores in the first half and transferring 53 to franchise partners. Workforce reductions and network restructuring drove down total operating costs by 9.6%, year on year, in the second quarter, lifting H1 savings to PLN 56 million (€12.9 million) and beating initial projections by PLN 4 million (€0.9 million). Financial Position Eurocash reported an adjusted EBITDA of PLN 251 million (€58.0 million) for Q2 2026, alongside a reported EBITDA of PLN 201.6 million (€46.5 million). Net profit from continuing operations rose past PLN 10 million (€2.3 million). Pre-IFRS net debt fell by over PLN 140 million (€32.4 million), to PLN 500 million (€115.6 million), lowering the adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio to 1.6x from 1.8x at the end of Q1. Despite total Polish FMCG growth slowing to 0.5% in Q2 and the wholesale relevant market contracting by 7.6%, Eurocash’s core franchise chains demonstrated resilience, limiting its sales decline to 1.3% in H1 and growing their market share to 35.7%. Looking ahead, Eurocash plans to pivot from aggressive structural cost-cutting towards sales acceleration, network expansion and long-term franchise integration, retaining its overarching goal of reaching PLN 600 million (€138.7 million) in EBIT by 2027.
