Carrefour Brasil stock (ISIN BRCRFBACNOR2) exited B3 in May 2025 after the French parent completed a buyout at BRL 8.50 per share. The latest corporate move is a reported BRL 360 million sale of 21 Carrefour Bairro stores to Grupo Pereira, a transaction that still requires Brazilian antitrust approval.

Store sale reshapes the portfolio

According to The Rio Times on October 6, 2026, the package covers 15 supermarkets in Sao Paulo and six in the Federal District. The stores are expected to move to Grupo Pereira's Comper banner after the transaction receives clearance.

InvestNews reported that the 21 units represented 81 percent of Carrefour Brasil's 26 supermarkets at the end of June 2026. The group still operated 718 locations, including 387 Atacadao stores, 105 hypermarkets, 142 convenience stores and 58 Sam's Club sites.

Profit growth meets strategic retreat

The portfolio decision contrasts with the supermarket format's 5.5 percent comparable-sales growth in the second quarter of 2026, versus 2.5 percent for hypermarkets, according to ABCD Jornal. The same report said recurring operating income in Brazil reached EUR 359 million in the first half, up 5.8 percent from the same period of 2025, while the operating margin was 4 percent.

Yahoo Finance reported that Carrefour Brazil's credit portfolio increased 13 percent during the first half of 2026. The figures point to a business concentrating capital on Atacadao and financial services while reducing exposure to neighborhood supermarkets.

Private status changes the investor lens

For investors, the key figure is the BRL 8.50 buyout price that accompanied the May 2025 exit from the exchange. The store sale now offers a fresh operating marker: 21 locations are being transferred while the wider network remains centered on cash-and-carry, hypermarkets and membership clubs.

Carrefour Brasil stock leaves B3

Carrefour Brasil became a privately held company after the May 2025 transaction, so the stock's relevant market reference is the BRL 8.50 buyout price rather than a current B3 quotation.
