Gabriela Stănică Joins the Executive Committee of Carrefour Romania

With a career spanning over 20 years in IT, Gabriela Stănică joined Carrefour Romania in October 2020, being responsible for the company’s digital transformation, IT infrastructure modernization, and innovation initiatives. Under her leadership, Carrefour has accelerated automation processes in stores and back-office operations, optimized the supply chain, and launched a large-scale migration to the Cloud. Moreover, she plays a key role in the integration of the Cora network into the Carrefour ecosystem by harmonizing infrastructure and digital systems.

“I am honored to begin a new challenge at Carrefour Romania and to continue, alongside my team, the company’s extensive digital transformation processes, now with an even greater focus on AI. I firmly believe that technology, data, and artificial intelligence are not just tools, but catalysts for a smarter, more personalized, and more connected retail experience that truly addresses the real needs of our customers and colleagues. As part of Carrefour’s strategy, my main objective is to further develop a strong digital retail company that continuously brings relevant innovations to the market,” said Gabriela Stănică, Chief Information Officer, Digital & AI and member of the Executive Committee of Carrefour Romania.

The company is also testing the use of AI in multiple areas with the goal of anticipating consumer needs and adapting to market realities.
