Reading the figures

The 779 stores are a record drawn from Foursquare Open Places, not a count published by the brand — this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish.

The reach indicators — coverage, index by region — are robust to that bias: they measure a distance and a population, which a location described twice does not move. Recorded 27 October 2026.

Everything you need to know about our solutions.

How many stores does Despar have in Italy?

The record of 27 October 2026 identifies 779 Despar stores in Italy, across 20 regions.

The figure serves to compare networks rather than to count stores.

What share of Italy does Despar reach?

34.8 % of the population lives within 5 kilometres of a Despar, and 56.8 % within 10 kilometres. Coverage counts each population cell once, however many locations reach it, which makes it insensitive to the double-counting that affects raw location totals.
