Amazon is installing pick-up lockers in Casino stores and making more of the French company's products available on Amazon
Paris —
An Amazon spokesperson said it had a policy of not commenting on market speculation. Amazon's purchase of bricks-and-mortar US food retailer Whole Foods Market in 2018 has raised speculation it could buy a European food retailer. Tina Schuler, CEO of LeaderPrice, Casino Supermarches, Geant Casino and Casino Proximites, told a conference call that the deal — whose financial terms were not disclosed — will help Casino"boost traffic and revenues in e-commerce and in stores".
"This co-operation should help Casino further strengthen its e-commerce footprint as part of its goal to generate revenue of €1bn from the sale of groceries online," said Gregoire Laverne, fund manager at Roche Brune Asset Management.Nevertheless, Casino's shares fell 0.9% by 11.13am GMT, after S&P Global Ratings cut its credit rating on Casino to BB- negative outlook, pushing it further into junk territory.
