Carrefour France to lease 66 stores in 2020 | Progresiv

Carrefour France has announced plans to lease a total of 66 stores, including 12 hypermarkets, before year-end. About 34 Carrefour Market stores and 12 hypermarket stores will be leased to management in the first half of 2020 while the remaining 20 Market stores will be leased in the second half of the year.

Previosuly, in 2019 the retailer disclosed plans to transfer 26 stores to a franchise or lease management system, claiming that all the stores selected are under-performing outlets and the move is seen as allowing them a chance to turn around their business by using local knowledge of catchment and shopper habits.
