Metro Cash and CarryStore Manager
Apr. 2012 - Jul. 2014Bayrampasa, IstanbulMetro Cash & Carry is the leading international player in self-service wholesale: customer-focused, international and innovative. The concept is oriented towards helping customers to successfully run their own businesses. Metro Cash & Carry looks back on a history of success in wholesale concepts. Founded in 1964 in Germany, the company quickly spread to many countries in Europe, Asia and Northern Africa. Its tradition in wholesale is accompanied by social heritage: a truly international corporate culture. The Metro Cash & Carry concept was unique when the first store opened its doors to German businesses in 1964: instead of placing orders for the delivery of goods through multiple vendors, customers selected their own purchases directly at a store in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, and took those goods with them. Today, the company has grown to become the leading international player in self-service wholesale. Much copied around the world, Metro Cash & Carry is once again setting itself apart from its competitors. The Metro Cash & Carry product range and services - from delivery to ready-made business solutions - is outstanding in its diversity, quality and excellent price-benefit ratio.
It operates with an unparalleled expertise in providing fresh food products.
