Carrefour France to launch Supeco banner next month | Progresiv
Carrefour France has announced plans to launch the Supeco banner domestically from September 2019. Supeco is a concept that represents a combination of supermarket and cash & carry formats, initially launched in Spain in 2012. Currently, Carrefour operates 41 Supeco stores in Europe – 23 in Spain, 15 in Romania, one in Italy and two in Poland. 
The store size of Supeco is typically smaller than that of a Carrefour Market. Supeco stores in Spain size between 1,500 to 2,000 sq.m. and offer a maximum of 2,000 SKUs. The retailer’s objective is to convert poorly-performing Market stores to Supeco. Two Supeco stores in Valenciennes and Onnaing are slated to open in early September, according to retail blogger Olivier Dauvers. (www.kantarretailiq.com)
