Auchan is also preparing an offer to take over Carrefour. Such a transaction, if approved, would create a new leader in Romania

The French group Auchan, controlled by the Mulliez family, one of the richest in the Hexagon and in the world, is preparing a new offer to take over the compatriots from Carrefour, another giant in the food trade, writes Bloomberg, citing sources close to the transaction.

This new offer is being prepared after the negotiations between the two sides failed in the autumn.

For this giant takeover – Carrefour has an annual turnover of 80 billion euros – Auchan is discussing a number of investment funds to join the process. On the list would be CVC Capital Partners, a giant investment fund, writes Bloomberg.
