Kesa Electricals is Europe's third-largest seller (behind METRO AG's MediaMarkt and Dixons) of consumer electronics with some 700 stores in 10 countries. Its stores sell a range of home appliances (refrigerators, stoves, washing machines, vacuum cleaners), consumer electronics (TVs, DVD players, stereo systems, gaming consoles, camcorders), and even computers and cell phones. Kesa's banners include BCC in the Netherlands; Comet in the UK; Darty in France, Italy, Switzerland, and Turkey; Datart in the Czech Republic and Slovakia; and Vanden Borre in Belgium. Kesa also sells high-speed Internet and high-definition TV service.
