Assai, the wholesale operation of G.P.A. (itself a subsidiary of the Casino Group), has published its latest revenue targets. C.E.O. Peter Estermann plans sales of US$7.5 billion for 2020 and US$12.4 billion in 2022.

This is a very first unit outside Brazil and is well-positioned to compete with other hard discounters.
