MAGROS


Thursday, October 24th, 1996
Christian Lebrat, the French president of the MAGROS Food company, is visiting our town. He arrived yesterday and he is here to meet Mr. Douglas, the manager of the MAGROS store in Oxham Street. This is Mr. Lebrat's second visit to Selton. He was here in 1991 when he opened the store. There are sixty-five MAGROS stores in Europe - twenty in England, twelve in Germany, fifteen in France and eighteen in Spain. Next year, Mr. Lebrat wants to open a store in Rome, Italy, too. Mr. Lebrat can't stay in Selton for very long. He has a busy programme. He is flying to Madrid tomorrow morning to visit the stores there.
