Monoprix is a French city-centre retailer founded as Noma in Rouen in 1932 and renamed later that year. It sells groceries and fresh food alongside beauty, fashion, home, decoration and leisure products. Customers can buy through several shop formats and online.
The chain has operated as a subsidiary of the same French retail group since 2013. Its parent now trades as Plesio, having previously used the Groupe Casino name. Monoprix's mixed range distinguishes it from a food-only supermarket: one urban shop can combine everyday groceries with clothing, household goods and personal-care products. Its city-centre position and broad catalogue define the business more clearly than any single store incident.
