On France the law requires the fiber provider to share it with other operators.
Over they lay the fiber and provide the end user connector box, there is a 3 months period during which it is not possible to give offers to allow other operators to prepare their offer.
So often you get a bundle of the main three operators, but not always.
In my case (a dense city next to Paris) Orange provided the fiber and the only offer. I had to wait one, and then two years for the other ones show up.
