Retail giant Carrefour has revealed a 59 per cent increase in new customers onto its online platform, as shoppers choose to go down the digital route during the current coronavirus crisis.
Its online business witnessed a 32 per cent increase in the first two weeks of March, compared to the same period the previous month.
A spokesperson for Carrefour UAE said: “To cater to increased demand for delivery orders, we’ve opened six new fulfilment centres across the region. We’re also replenishing stocks more frequently and increasing resources at our fulfilment centres to guarantee timely delivery to our customers who do choose to shop online.”
