Carrefour : A second "Gourmet" Market in Poland

Carrefour Poland opened its second 'Gourmet' Market supermarket. The store, located in Podkowa Leśna (near Warsaw) and extending over some 1,100 square metres, provides its customers with a broad, diversified offering of over 15,000 products and a series of solutions aimed at improving customer satisfaction with product and service offerings and customer service quality.

The new supermarket in the Podkowa shopping centre at 26 rue Gołębia in Podkowa Leśna offers its customers a modern, spacious sales area of about 1,100 m².

The new Podkowa Leśna store has an extremely varied offering. Consisting of over 15,000 different products, it includes a vast choice of fruit and vegetables, regional products supplied by local manufacturers and farmers, traditional cured meats from the 'Wędzarnia Carrefour' smokery and an assortment of 'health' products (a range for diabetics and organic, gluten-free, lactose-free, soya-based and low-fat products). The range of healthy products is supplemented by products sold in bulk such as raisins, nuts, beans, peas and lentils. The new store also stocks products from the Carrefour Quality Line range, regional products of French origin under the 'Reflets de France' brand and Italian 'Terre d'Italia' specialities, marketed exclusively by Carrefour.

Customers of the new store can also take advantage of programmes to help them save whilst shopping: 'Karty Dużej Rodziny' (large family card) and 'Karty Seniora', and can take part in the 'Zyskuj na okrągło' (Benefit round the clock) campaign, which enables customers to buy basic necessities at stable, 'square deal' prices.

This Carrefour store is the first supermarket to open in the town of Podkowa Leśna. It employs 45 people, mainly from Podkowa Leśna and the surrounding area.
