By breaking ground for its twelfth Carrefour store in Phase 11, DHA Rahbar, Majid Al Futtaim—the leading shopping mall, communities, retail, and leisure pioneer across the Middle East and Africa—has further increased its retail footprint in Pakistan. The eleventh Carrefour location in Phase 7 is currently being built, and both new locations will be open by the end of 2023.
Dr. Younis Al Mullah, the Senior Vice President (SVP) of Business Development at Majid Al Futtaim, Colonel Ali Yasir Pirzada, the Director of Joint Venture & Built, Operate, Transfer (JV & BOT), and Umer Lodhi, Country Manager of Carrefour Pakistan at Majid Al Futtaim Retail, also attended the groundbreaking ceremony.
I’m thrilled to be a part of this new strategic development in Pakistan, said Dr. Younis Al Mullah, Senior Vice President (SVP) of Business Development at Majid Al Futtaim. The nation presents Carrefour with exciting opportunities, and we are still committed to growing our presence there and bringing the best of Carrefour to this vibrant market.
According to Umer Lodhi, Country Manager of Carrefour Pakistan at Majid Al Futtaim Retail, “Carrefour is committed to strengthening the economy of Pakistan by creating job opportunities and offering consumers high-quality goods and services, despite economic challenges in the country. The growth of Carrefour’s retail presence in Pakistan demonstrates how the company puts its customers’ accessibility and convenience first while also modernizing the retail industry and promoting social empowerment.
Carrefour has established itself as a reliable local partner by adding value to the industry and the Pakistani economy with a total investment of PKR 11.5 billion in the country’s retail sector. The brand’s unwavering dedication to growth and development is demonstrated by the fact that two new stores have broken ground in the last five months.
Customers can still choose to shop in person at any of the ten currently operating locations, or they can choose to have their purchases delivered through the Carrefour Pakistan app for even greater convenience. The Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store both offer the ability to download the app.
