Carrefour has opened a new hypermarket in Guangzhou, the capital and largest city of Guangdong province, in southern China.
The Carrefour Zhongshan Xinyue opened on 28 December, boasting a sales area of 6,900 square metres and 18 checkouts, as well as a parking area with 700 spaces.
The French retailer continues to expand its presence in China, with the Guangzhou opening coming just over a month after it opened a 6,790-square-metre hypermarket in the city of Xiangyang, in the Hubei province.
Carrefour currently operates more than 230 hypermarkets in China.
