Conad ( Consorzio Nazionale Dettaglianti ) is an Italian cooperative association of retailers based in Bologna .

The association unites 3,149 affiliated sales outlets with a total of around 53,000 employees throughout Italy as well as in Albania and Malta and achieved a turnover of 13 billion euros in 2017 . These are combined in eight regional Conad cooperatives and operate under the Conad and Margherita brands .

The cooperation association consists of three areas. Firstly from the owners of the individual businesses, secondly from originally eight higher-level regional cooperation groups and the national consortium itself, which provides all of the central services of the Conad Group. According to an agreement from December 2004, Rewe Italia , part of the German Rewe Group, which has been operating as the Rewe Group since 2006 , is now the ninth partner in the group of regional cooperations.

In terms of sales, the Conad Group is divided into three areas. These are the Conad supermarkets , the smaller "Margherita" supermarkets and the E.Leclerc-Conad hypermarkets . These are run by Conad for the originally French retail group E.Leclerc in Italy.

In Albania Conad occurred in 2007 for the first time. At that time, the first branch was opened in the capital Tirana . The supermarket chain recorded sales quickly and expanded to include additional locations every year. For the last time, 23 branches were registered in 2011, with a total area of ​​10,500 m² and a turnover of 31 million euros. 80 percent of the products in the range were imported from Italy in the same year. The other 20 percent were Albanian products. For 2012 Conad plans to open nine more branches. Conad is one of the largest retailers in the Southeast European country and competes with companies such as Euromax , Mercator and Carrefour .
