Since July 18, 2024, Carrefour has launched a special back-to-school campaign with promotions on all items in the school supplies department for the happiness of families who frequent their 8 stores in Cameroon.
It’s two months of discounts on all back-to-school items. Parents will be able to prepare their children’s back-to-school with peace of mind and in the best conditions.
« It’s a way of helping parents for the 2024-2025 school year. It’s two months, from July 18 to September 30, 2024, of promotion on school supplies with pens at 50f, 100f available, but not only. Notebooks, erasers, school bags are also available at an affordable price » says Mr. MARCILLON Philippe, the General Manager of Cfao Retail Cameroon. It is a large space dressed in the colors of « Ready for a successful back-to-school! » which will welcome visitors, parents and children in Carrefour supermarkets. This special back-to-school promotion is one of the supermarket’s main activities, which offers its customers more than 1,000 references of useful items such as pens, books, notebooks, school bags, erasers, pencils, in short everything necessary for a good start to the school year.
To mark this major operation, Carrefour stores are displaying a special « Back to School » decoration. The departments are designed to make it easier for our customers to shop, with specific layouts for school bags, notebooks, pens, drawing materials and school books. Everything is designed so that parents and children can approach the start of the school year with peace of mind.
Carrefour wants to be close to its customers and understands the importance of preparing well for the start of the school year. This is why they have selected a complete range of products to meet the needs of each student, from the youngest to the oldest. Whether for basic supplies, school books or clothing, Carrefour is committed to offering quality products at competitive prices as Mr. Marcillon reassures us: « We assure you that you will find everything you need for a successful return to school in our various stores. The prices are affordable, taking into account the purchasing power of households and the availability of products to satisfy everyone. The operation is launched in July to allow our customers to better prepare for this return to school with complete peace of mind. » The promotion of « Made in Cameroon » is an aspect dear to the Director. This is why he chose five major suppliers of made in Cameroon to support them. Made in Cameroon represents approximately 30% of their turnover in this operation.
A choice that does not leave visitors indifferent as Mrs. Emérencia Tchutta, eps Nganag, testifies: « We have notebooks and books that are side by side. This changes the situation when we know that books and notebooks are usually not in the same place. » With a turnover of 6.9 billion euros, access to 47 of the 54 countries in Africa and nearly 21,000 employees, the CFAO group, Corporation For Africa & Overseas, contributes to the growth of the continent, its industrialization and the emergence of the middle class, by relying on its field knowledge and local know-how. A partner of major global brands, the Group operates across the entire value chain – import, production, distribution – according to the best international standards.
