Carrefour is a multinational supermarket chain that got its start in France. Brazil is its second…read morelargest market, but they can be found all over Europe & Asia as well as in South America. This particular store is a blessing & a curse. They carry some international items that you can't find in other supermarkets and the store is huge. They carry all the normal grocery items as well as housewares, which are usually priced reasonably. The home appliances (refrigerators, washers etc.) and electronic items are usually on the expensive side compared to other stores. Make sure that you pay attention to the prices because sale items can be very cheap, but non-sale items are usually much more expensive compared to competitors. This location also has a gas station, and this is really a great reason to come here, because they always have the lowest prices in the metropolitan area.

Great location, but this supermarket (or rather, hypermarket) is a bit confused, sloppy and prices…read morearen't that great. You have to know your prices or you'll probably pay too much.

Many of the employees use masks and visors. They have an employee who applies hand sanitizer as you enter, and another employee who wipes down the shopping cart before you take it. They have Plexiglas shields at every cash register and have removed some of the checkout lanes so you are further apart. There are employees sweeping, mopping and wiping surfaces throughout the store, so it seems like they're doing a pretty good job at trying to keep everyone from getting sick.

This supermarket is one of two from this chain in this city. I think they have some of the best…read morevariety and quality items in town. They also have a good amount of imported items that you won't find anywhere else. If you are a price-conscious shopper, you can also get some very good deals here. They also have a great selection of wines & imported beers that you won't find anywhere else. I definitely recommend this supermarket when in town.
