YEREVAN. – Armenian National Assembly’s ruling Republican Party
Faction member Manvel Badeyan offered his space to well-known French
Carrefour hypermarket chain to build a hypermarket there, but the
space was unsuitable, 168 Zham daily reports.

“Speaking about the reasons, he noted that the building did not meet
[Carrefour’s requirements] with the physical features.

‘The buildings in Armenia cannot meet these requirements because it
is required that one square meter [of space] withstand no less than
1,000 kilograms,’ he said, noting that Armenia’s buildings withstand
less weight.

‘Carrefour has heavy equipment; that is why they either will have to
be placed on the first floor, or a special building will have to be
constructed,’ he concretized.

The MP also informed that, according to rumors, Carrefour is
constructing its [own] building in Avan [community of capital city
Yerevan]. Moreover, the construction has started a long time ago,”
168 Zham writes.
