Majid Al Futtaim, the entity with exclusive rights to operate Carrefour in Pakistan, has unveiled the inauguration of two new Carrefour supermarkets in Lahore. This move is aligned with Majid Al Futtaim’s vision to expand its investment and retail footprint in Pakistan. The current investment in the country is set to grow to 14 billion Rupees with the addition of these stores, bringing the total number of Carrefour outlets to 13.
The new Carrefour supermarkets are strategically situated in DHA Phase 7 (Sector T) and DHA Phase 11 (DHA-Rahbar, Block 2M). These locations aim to redefine the shopping experience for customers by addressing their needs for groceries and daily essentials, surpassing traditional supermarket offerings.
Featuring a bakery and deli, the stores offer an expanded assortment of delectable food options with diverse flavors and an onsite cafe. They also include a dedicated fresh butchery section adhering to international quality standards. The stores introduce Myli products, an exclusive health and beauty concept by Majid Al Futtaim. Myli’s diverse range spans cosmetics, fragrances, hair care, and skincare essentials, meeting the country’s increasing demand for premium yet affordable personal care items. Additionally, both locations provide a convenient in-store pharmacy, positioning these stores as one-stop destinations for daily essentials.
During the inauguration, Umer Lodhi, the Country Manager of Carrefour Pakistan at Majid Al Futtaim – Retail, expressed enthusiasm, stating, “This expansion reflects our commitment at Majid Al Futtaim to prioritizing customer convenience, fostering strong partnerships with local enterprises, and contributing to the prosperity of the national economy.” The stores are committed to promoting local brands, with 85 percent of the wide selection of products sourced from locally owned businesses.
Lodhi added, “This expansion will generate approximately 150 new job opportunities for the local community, further bolstering employment prospects in the country.”
Carrefour Pakistan remains dedicated to expanding its investment portfolio, fostering job creation, and supporting the growth of local businesses.
