Carrefour SA is a network of 15’130 stores located in Europe, Brazil, Argentina, North Africa, and Asia.
The first store was opened near the town of Annecy in the east of France, at a junction of roads. Today it is the smallest online store in the world. In 1963, Carrefour SA had opened the first hypermarket in the world, in the area of Sainte-Genevieve-des-Bois, becoming the ancestor of this retail format.
Carrefour SA came out on top among European retailers after merging with Promodès grocery stores in early 2000.
The company managed to gain popularity among customers due to two key advantages. First of all, that is convenience.

Gross profit from products and industrial goods varies, but, on average, is about 15%.
