If D12 is Islamabad, then its not the first branch here . You already have one in giga mall Islamabad. Main Islamabad have ZERO branches.

With all due respect they have just opened a grocery store, which is a disappointment keeping in mind they opened up in the capital. People who haven't seen carrefour in the ME, might like what they see in Islamabad, but for those who grew up in the ME, know carrefour in Islamabad is nothing like real one! The one in Giga Mall doesn't come under Islamabad and doesn't count as one either. So guys UP your game please.

During my stay in Alkhobar city KSA for 25 years till 2022, we were a regular visitor of carefour. Opening of this chain in Islamabad is good but the location will be very for the residents of Rawalpindi. Like in KSA alkhobar and Dammam are only approximately 25 KMS yet there are branches in these twin cities. So it is suggested to the owner to open yet another branch in Rawalpindi as well. I visited Giga Mall's branch but was not impressed by the items and terms of services as compared to the branches in KSA.

@Ramlah Seraj, Giga Mall is in DHA 2, and DHA 2 is in Islamabad. Face the reality y'all old Islamabadis: GT Road stretch from DHA 1 till T-Chowk is the new Islamabad and the cleaner version of Islamabad, an area where its at right now!
