FRANCE: AUCHAN'S PLASTIC BASKET SYSTEM

Article Abstract:

Auchan, the French retail group, has tested a system of plastic baskets on its shopping carts in three of its stores, at Aubagne, Osny, and Issy-les-Moulineaux, for several years. The purpose of this system is to reduce the handling of products between the store and one's home where these full containers can be placed directly in one's cupboards. Consumers pay FFr 11 to FFr 12 per container.
