After the operation, Staples will still be confronted with competition in the UK, most notably from Viking, the leading distance selling distributor and a subsidiary of Office Depot Staples' main rival, as well as from other distributors.
À l'issue de l'opération, Staples aura encore des concurrents au Royaume-Uni, en particulier Viking, numéro un de la vente à distance et filiale d'Office Depot, principal concurrent de Staples, ainsi que d'autres distributeurs.
