Why is Disney store closed in France?
This closure is due to different factors. Disney store now prefers to focus on sales that take place in its park and online. Strategy leading to the gradual closure of its 24 stores in France.
In 2009, the company had only 6 stores in France, and in 2019, it closed its Disney store in Calais, Lyon and Marseille. Only its Parisian "facade" remains in operation.
