Reuters•4 days agoCarrefour, Argentina workers agree to voluntary buyouts - government
French retailer Carrefour SA (CARR.PA) will offer voluntary buyouts to workers in Argentina in an effort to stem three years of losses, but will not lay off any workers, Argentina's Labor Ministry said in a statement on Friday. The grocery chain filed a "crisis prevention" application with the Ministry on April 6, spurring negotiations between the company, the government, and the Argentine Federation of Commerce and Service Workers union. A Carrefour spokesman told Reuters the company would pay workers who agreed to leave voluntarily up to 50 percent more than the normal severance costs associated with letting workers go in Argentina.

French retailer Carrefour cautious on 2018 as sales growth slows
Carrefour (CARR.PA) gave a cautious outlook for this year after sales growth slowed in the first quarter, with continued weakness in its core French market suggesting that the supermarket chain faces a long road to recovery. Europe's largest retailer had in January announced plans to cut costs and jobs, boost e-commerce investment and seek a partnership in China in an effort to lift profit and revenue and help it to contend with competition from U.S. online retail giant Amazon (AMZN.O). "This quarter further demonstrates that Carrefour's 2022 transformation plan is the right strategy," Malige said.

Carrefour Brasil quarterly sales rose, but deflation again weighed
Gross sales at food retailer Carrefour Brasil SA increased 6 percent in the first quarter from the same period a year earlier to 12.29 billion reais ($3.6 billion), though as in previous quarters, stubborn food price deflation limited gains. In a securities filing late on Tuesday, the company said same-store sales, a measure of revenue from stores open at least 12 months, rose 2.3 percent in the quarter when calendar effects, or different numbers and timing of selling days, were taken into account. Without taking into account calendar effects, same-store sales grew a more modest 0.4 percent.
