Intermarché wants to further strengthen its position in Belgium, both through new stores and through the expansion of existing stores. With the new Intermarché Express brand, the musketeers are aiming at the city centres.
In the first half of the year, in Wallonia, Intermarché opened two new branches. The chain now has 78 supermarkets in the southern part of Belgium. These are mainly located in rural areas and on the outskirts of the city. The supermarket chain is a modest player in Belgian distribution (2.2% market share according to Nielsen), but did manage to increase its turnover last year by 7.5%.
