There are changes at 50 rue de la Clé des Champs in Magny le Hongre. The Casino supermarket comes under the Super U brand. The opening took place this Thursday, November 14.
“We had more than 1 500 clients the first day is a good start,” rejoices Simon Rouxel. This X-HEC Entrepreneur Master student works in close collaboration with Céline Tondeur, “U associate” already at the head of the Roissy-en-Brie, Couilly-Pont-aux-Dames store and soon the future Super U which will open Coupvray.
“When the opportunity arose to take over the Casino, Céline Tondeur immediately positioned herself to make it more than just a convenience store,” he continues. “It’s a real alternative, between RapidMarket and the most expensive Auchan in France. » For the team, the objective is also to make the brand known in the sector before the opening in Coupvray planned for the first half of 2026.
Several new services
