Auchan's mammoth markets make room for more than meals. France's second-largest food retailer (behind Carrefour), Auchan operates about 495 hypermarkets (French for supercenters) and some 745 supermarkets in about a dozen countries. France is Auchan's largest market, but it has stores throughout Europe and in China, Dubai, Russia, and Taiwan. (Auchan exited the US, Mexico, and Morocco in recent years.) Its hypermarkets carry up to 100,000 products, including groceries, apparel, consumer electronics, and fast food. They also provide travel services. Auchan's other core businesses include banking (Banque Accord), and shopping mall development (Immochan). The founding Mulliez family controls Auchan.
