Analysis of Groupe Casino


A French supermarket and retail chain


Company: Groupe Casino

Business: A French supermarket and retail group. They have several supermarket chains as well as several own brands. They have over 12,000 stores and around 300,000 employees.

Active: France (34% of profit), South America (53% of profit) and Asia (12%). It seems as if many French companies are "invading" South America and being good at it!

P/E: 8.2

Comment: When I lived in France the supermarket closest to me was a Casino. Since it was close by I very often went there and especially when I could not be bothered to take the car to go to the XXL Carrefour store.
