Carrefour tomato frito

The barcode 8480000171511 belongs to Carrefour's private label tomato frito, a traditional Spanish fried tomato sauce. As a 'Carrefour' branded product, it is distributed by the French multinational retail giant, but the barcode prefix '84' specifically indicates that the product was registered and manufactured in Spain. This is common for Carrefour's food supply chain in the Iberian Peninsula, where they partner with local Spanish agricultural processors to produce store-brand staples.

Carrefour was founded in France in 1958 and has since become one of the largest retailers in the world. While the parent company is French, this specific product is a local implementation of their private label strategy, ensuring that regional tastes—like the specific texture and flavor of Spanish tomato frito—are met through domestic production. The brand is currently managed and owned by the Carrefour Group, headquartered in Massy, France.
