This year Castorama Poland expanded its CastoRent service to a further 77 stores (now 100 in total). Rental contributes to lower-carbon emissions and reduced electronic waste and promotes sharing economy principles.
Customers can hire 52 different products (65% of which are OEB) including electric alternatives for combustion power tools, e.g. cordless chainsaws, electric hedge trimmers.
The service has many benefits to the business. It allows us to respond to customers’ needs for small, one-time use, builds awareness of our OEB products, lets customers test our products before purchase, creates a reason to visit our store and increases sales of complementary products (such as sandpaper or protective clothing). This year we’ve rented out 36,000 items with a net sales worth of £546,000 in 2024/25.
