History

Carrefour launched the Tex brand in 1982 to integrate textile sales into the hypermarket model. It became one of the highest-volume clothing labels in Europe, particularly in France and Spain. The brand's historical significance lies in the democratization of basic fashion, making apparel readily available alongside groceries. It reflects the shift toward one-stop shopping and the expansion of private-label goods into the global fashion industry during the late twentieth century.
