Carrefour is Europe’s number-one retailer chain with approximately 16 thousand stores and more than 470 thousand employees in 33 countries. Carrefour, which has laid the foundations of modern retailing in the world, opened its first store in Turkey in the district of İçerenköy in 1993. İçerenköy AVM is the oldest Carrefour in Istanbul.

SHOPLED LED downlight is a lighting fixture which pays for itself in a short time since it is highly efficient and an energy saver with making no concessions on quality of lighting and light depending on the area of use. The highly efficient light produced in LEDs is directed to the intended area by high-purity aluminum reflectors to provide a high level of visual comfort.

The management searched for new technologies because of the maintenance costs of old compact fluorescents used in Carrefour AVMs, their disadvantages over the new technologies and more importantly, low level of illuminance provided by such old units.

As a result of the studies made and projects prepared by LİTPA SHOPLED down-light fixtures were gradually installed as an ongoing project. Measurements made at each stage have shown that the former illuminance levels are exceeded to a great extent and the levels needed in an AVM have been fulfilled.
