Overview
- Carrefour acquired 16 Súper A supermarkets in Mendoza and will convert them to the Carrefour Express format during September.
- The company will add 60 Súper A workers to its payroll with tenure and pay preserved, while the sellers plan to place about 20 remaining staff at their Blow Max wholesale chain, according to union officials.
- Company sources say the transaction does not change the formal search for a partner or buyer for Carrefour Argentina, a process led by Deutsche Bank.
- Reported interested parties include GDN/ChangoMás, La Anónima, Coto, Rubén Cherñajovsky’s Newsan, Inverlat, Grupo One and Klaff Realty LP.
- Carrefour reports more than 700 stores nationwide with over 500 Express locations and maintains a 2025–2027 plan targeting 100 new openings, 2,500 jobs and roughly US$300 million in investment.
