Super de Boer was a Dutch supermarket chain. The holding company which owned Super de Boer, Super de Boer N.V., was formerly named Laurus N.V.. It changed its name to that of its only remaining retail brand in January 2008.
Super de Boer supermarkets were partly owned by franchisors. The French food retail group Casino Guichard purchased a 37% stake in the firm in 2002,[1] and increased this to 57% by 2008.[2] The firm agreed to be taken private by Dutch rival Jumbo in October 2009 in a deal worth €552 million, with Casino selling its entire stake.[2]
