Spain: Carrefour plans expansion with private label focus
The group is utilising franchising for the expansion of its Carrefour Express format, with the recent opening of new stores in the Madrid suburb of Soto del Real, with 42 employees, and Pinares de Murcia, with 16 staff. Carrefour noted its sales increases in the country in the third quarter, despite the difficult economic climate, mostly due to relaxed Sunday opening hours.
