Case Study: Carrefour Argentina achieves 100% data protection and faster backups with Veeam

Carrefour offers a better shopping experience with Veeam

Carrefour Argentina, the local arm of the global Carrefour retail group with more than 600 stores, runs 24/7 distribution centers and customer-facing in‑store and e‑commerce systems that depend on constant access to data. As part of a digital transformation to centralize IT and move to a virtualized, cloud‑ready environment, the company needed a single data protection solution to guarantee 100% availability and faster, more reliable restores.

Carrefour selected Veeam Data Platform — Advanced Edition after a successful proof‑of‑concept (an Active Directory server was restored in under an hour). Today Veeam protects 100% of Carrefour Argentina’s virtualized systems (daily incremental and weekly full backups), cut backup windows from hours to about 30 minutes in many cases, centralizes backup management and monitoring, frees staff to focus on innovation, and strengthens the retailer’s cyber‑resilience to preserve seamless shopping experiences.
