FRANCE: Carrefour expands Bio banner with Lyon opening | Progresiv

Carrefour has expanded its banner Carrefour Bio into Lyon with a 225-square-metre outfit which it says is a response to a rising demand for organic SKUs in France.

Its entire offering is organic, providing over 4,500 vegetarian, ‘healthy’, and gluten-free SKUs.

‘This new sales outlet will meet the growing needs of consumers who care about what they eat,’ Carrefour says. It will give customers 'a complete range of organic, healthy products designed to contribute to their well-being – and at affordable prices.’

The shop is staffed by a manager and six employees. About ten Carrefour Bio branches will be in operation by the end of 2016. (www.esmmagazine.com)
