Carrefour is growing in key markets
– In a mixed economic context, Carrefour performed very well in two key countries. In France, the Group accelerated its price investment policy while maintaining profitability, added a record number of new franchisees and expanded its reach by integrating the Cora and Match networks. Carrefour's share in the domestic market reached its highest level since 2012. In Brazil, we achieved growth thanks to the transformation of stores, the commercial dynamics of Atacadão and synergies resulting from the integration of the BIG Group. At the same time, we are accelerating the implementation of the "Carrefour 2026" plan, along with the development of e-commerce, the store network and our own brand. Carrefour enters the second half of the year with confidence and confirms its financial goals, said Alexandre Bompard, president and CEO of the Carrefour Group.
