Two Carrefour Easy stores have opened in Belgium, the first of their kind in Europe and the vanguard of a planned 100 stores throughout the country.
These shops will fit between its Market and Express chains in terms of size and stock.
Easy stores will provide meat, fish and fresh produce, as well as speedy checkout times, the retailer said in a release. They will also house an in-store bakery and sell items such as toiletries and pharmacy products.
“As the name suggests, Easy essentially offers fresh products that people can quickly and easily buy every day,” Carrefour said. “With this unique concept, Carrefour meets demand from customers eager to consume more fresh produce without paying too much.”
