Carrefour: quality products
at competitive prices
We provide a wide range of quality products in partnership with Carrefour hypermarkets and smaller Carrefour Market supermarkets, many sourced from local suppliers. This allows us to meet the expectations of customers keen to know where their products come from, by ensuring complete traceability and unbeatable prices.
Supeco targets the budget segment and gives both individuals and businesses the option to buy retail or in bulk. The first Supeco store opened in April 2019 in Dakar, Senegal.
A partner of Jumia (since 2018), Africa’s leading e-commerce company, CFAO Consumer and Carrefour also enable consumers in Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal to order products online from dedicated Carrefour stores, expanding the offer through online sales.
