Carrefour extends its e-commerce offer
Carrefour is committed to accelerating its omnichannel strategy and has pledged to deploy 2 000 e-commerce points of sale by the end of 2021. Thanks to rapid pick-up, wide opening hours and new promotions each week, the pedestrian drive represents a time-saver for consumers and a genuine local service.
