According to the manager of the hypermarket, this point of sale “open 7 days a day offers an offer of more than 150 products”. 30% of these products are from the Carrefour “distributor” brand, 61% offer a fresh/dry/liquid snacking offer and 30% are convenience products.
Finally “some non-food and auto references” are sold in this automatic box.

“A specific, agile mode of operation, and directly carried out by the operator within the hypermarket”, says the director of the hypermarket.

A first for Carrefour which could, if successful, multiply this type of sale, which is especially solicited outside store opening hours.
