Carrefour reaffirms its commitment to sustainability by launching ‘Choose Better’ at its COP28 store

Dubai, United Arab Emirates: Carrefour, operated by Majid Al Futtaim in the UAE, reaffirms its commitment to sustainability by opening a one-of-a-kind store at COP28’s Blue Zone in Expo City, offering a unique, eco-conscious shopping experience. As part of its participation in the event, and further emphasising its dedication to pioneering sustainable initiatives, Carrefour will also be launching its innovative 'Choose Better' programme at this store.

According to the UAE’s National Nutrition Strategy, 83% of the adult population do not consume their recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables daily. Carrefour’s customer insights reveal that while customers aspire to lead healthier lifestyles, they struggle to find a range of healthier food options at affordable prices. Derived from this powerful insight, the ‘Choose Better’ programme aims to educate, empower, and reward customers by making healthier and more sustainable choices accessible, affordable, and appealing, both in-store and online. This programme is built on three pivotal pillars – Choose Better, 'For You', 'For the Planet', and 'For Communities' – each playing a crucial role in fostering positive change with healthier lifestyles that protect the planet and support local communities. Customers can also find the ‘Choose Better’ offering at Carrefour’s Mall of the Emirates, City
