Carrefour SA (CA.FR) said Wednesday that it is buying organic-product chain So.bio, without disclosing a price.

The French retailer said it aims to develop the brand and expand it nationwide in a move that fits into its strategic plan to significantly increase sales of organic products by 2022.

So.bio currently owns eight stores in southwest France, with two more due to open in the coming months.
