Carrefour Egypt, operating under the Majid Al Futtaim retail group, is a leading force in Egypt’s fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector, known for its quality, freshness, and competitive pricing in food, beverages, beauty, and household products. The brand entered the Egyptian market in 2002 and rapidly established itself as a preferred supermarket and hypermarket chain, appealing to both mass and premium segments of the population by combining international best practices with strong local adaptation.
Carrefour Egypt operates a network of hypermarkets, supermarkets, and convenience stores across major cities, offering a wide variety of products—fresh produce, groceries, dairy, meat, baked goods, snacks, beverages, health & beauty items, personal care products, and household essentials. The stores also feature sections for electronics (including major brands like LG, Samsung, Canon, Lenovo, and Apple) and apparel, though food, drink, and beauty remain the core categories.
From a sustainability and social responsibility perspective, Carrefour Egypt runs training and development initiatives to empower youth, especially those with special needs, through vocational programs like “Together We Can” and “Know Me, Accept Me.” These initiatives, run in partnership with local NGOs, provide internships, job opportunities, and raise awareness about inclusion, reflecting the company’s active role in community development.
Financial specifics are not publicly disclosed, but given the brand’s scale, market position, and comparison with regional peers, annual turnover is estimated to be in the lower range of large multinational retailers in Egypt. Carrefour Egypt continues to expand its footprint and product offerings, making it an attractive partner for FMCG manufacturers and suppliers seeking broad distribution and a reputable retail channel in one of the Middle East’s largest consumer markets.
