Eroski Franquicias
The cooperative deploys formats such as Eroski City which, “thanks to their versatility, reach a multitude of locations and cover the needs of a very wide clientele.” Eroski City is a local model for urban areas, “with a wide range of fresh, quality products at very competitive prices.”
The franchisee, for his part, manages his business with his own technology, assistance with orders and digitalized billing.
It should be noted that the concept proposed by Eroski Franquicias fits with self-employment, investors or entrepreneurs, among other profiles.

Dia
The company has strengthened the relationship with franchisees who are accompanied throughout the process, from before opening the store to daily management. “And we provide them with tools that provide them with facilities, such as a new app or the franchisee portal, which rely on the latest technologies to simplify day-to-day operations.”
All of the above has led Dia to achieve the milestone of 1,500 franchises distributed throughout the country – “66% of our network of stores” – and to boost the percentage of multi-franchisees, “which already reaches 30%”.

Carrefour Express
Integrated into the Carrefour group, the Express supermarket franchise displays several competitive advantages, as detailed by the headquarters. “We constantly and permanently support franchisees to whom we provide quality, a wide range and the confidence of our brand in all products. From here, we offer proximity and confidence to our customers, without forgetting the excellent policy of prices guaranteed by the Carrefour group”.
Carrefour Express, which seeks both self-employment and investment profiles, develops stores with a modern and simple atmosphere, “with the idea of ​​making shopping easier for the user”.

El Pez Gastrotiendas
Based on a tapas model based on its own vermouth, this food franchise does not “need a smoke outlet or warehouse, nor does it require personnel with specific qualifications, in addition to being very easy to adapt to almost any location.” Added to all of the above is the operational simplicity, as “nothing needs to be cooked, no grill, microwave or gas.”
Another characteristic of El Pez Gastrotiendas is that there is no table service and it can serve one to three people, without forgetting that it works with non-perishable goods.

Vinopremier
In its spaces they combine a specialized store of wines, beers, spirits, batches and gifts for companies, gourmet products, a training room, events and a tasting area.
“We stand out for the original combination of wholesale, retail and online trade, with an accessible and competitive catalogue based on quality.” This offer is complemented at Vinopremier with premises characterized by their “personality, with elegant, warm and very careful design.”
Finally, it should be noted that this food franchise sells approximately 7,000 products.
