About Run Market
Run Market is the supermarket chain IBL holds in Réunion, the island where the group has built its second home market. IBL owns 51 per cent of it. In the year to June 2025 it grew turnover by double digits and reached positive EBITDA for the first time since it was acquired, the result of a restructuring that cut costs and rebuilt its teams. The group is careful about what that means: it describes the chain as close to profitability rather than at it.
