We are successful around the world

Just four years after the first wholesale store opened in Mülheim an der Ruhr, we started expanding outside Germany. Now, METRO Wholesale operates in 25 European and Asian countries and has long since become a leading international wholesaler. We develop innovative concepts for the saturated markets in Western Europe and capitalise on the dynamism of the growing markets in Asia and Eastern Europe.

We are forward-looking

We fulfil our social responsibility everywhere we operate. We help to develop local communities and create jobs. We make a lasting contribution for the sake of the environment and society. In various emerging countries, we are trailblazing the development of a modern commercial and supply chain infrastructure. We are also committed to improving food safety and quality standards. We have adopted a local procurement strategy: we source up to 90 per cent of our goods from local producers and suppliers. This is how we build trust – and remain forward-looking in everything we do.
