# The 50 largest shopping centre owners and operators in France
Tamtam tracks 80 shopping centre owners and operators headquartered in France. This list ranks the 50 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, Westfield and NHOOD. Their median headcount is 73. Half of them were founded in 2003 or later. The most common headquarters are Paris (24), Villeneuve-d'Ascq (3) and Boulogne-Billancourt (2).
These French companies are primarily involved in the ownership and operation of shopping centers. They range from large groups like Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, which creates and operates sustainable places in Europe and the US, to mid-sized firms. NHOOD manages and transforms real estate sites into living neighborhoods, while ALTAREA specializes in low-carbon urban transformation. KLEPIERRE is a European leader in shopping malls, and Carrefour Property owns properties for hypermarkets and supermarkets.
The data shows a strong concentration of headquarters in Paris, with most of the listed companies based there. Another notable pattern is the recent founding dates for several larger companies, such as Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield in 2018 and NHOOD in 2021, indicating a relatively recent expansion or restructuring in the sector.

## How this list is built
Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
