The Romanian subsidiary of French retailer Carrefour increased its sales by 7.5% to EUR 2.2 billion in 2019, following the success of cash&carry discount format Supeco.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, Carrefour Romania recorded sales of EUR 633 mln, 7.3% more than in the same quarter of the previous year, reporting a like-for-like growth of 4.5%.

The growth was driven by the success of the Supeco format, according to the report. Of the eight Supeco stores opened by Carrefour between October and December, six were in Romania, one in Poland and one in France, their number reaching 54. The Supeco brand, which is part of the Carrefour group, has 24 stores nationwide.
