Company description
Operations
Its operations extend to businesses such as supermarkets, home centers, department stores, shopping malls and financial services, making it the most diversified company for Latin American capitals in the Southern Cone and with the greatest square meter offer. Cencosud also boasts other lines of business that complement its central operation, which include an insurance brokerage, family entertainment centers and a travel agency. All these receive excellent recognition and prestige among consumers, being well known for their quality, high level of service and customer satisfaction.
Cencosud’s main objective is to become the largest retailer in Latin America, bringing its maxims of quality of service, excellence and commitment to hundreds of thousands of clients. To achieve this task the company has been focused on an ambitious plan of internationalization since the late 1980s. Today it has consolidated operations in Chile and Argentina and expansion plans in full development.
With this base and thirty seven years of experience, Cencosud broadened its horizons during 2007 by starting operations in Colombia as well as acquiring two large supermarket and hypermarket chains in Peru and Brazil.
