Conad (Consorzio Nazionale Dettaglianti), stylized CONAD,[4] is an Italian retail store brand which operates one of the largest supermarket chains in Italy.[5] Created in 1962,[6] Conad is a cooperative system of entrepreneurs, dealing in large-scale distribution. It is structured on three levels: entrepreneur members (owners of retail outlets), cooperatives (large shopping and distribution centers), and the national consortium (a service and market-oriented body for member companies).[7]

Since 2018 many Conad supermarkets have offered freshly-squeezed orange juice («le spremute») in their produce departments.[8] Additionally, Conad is recognized as having been a leader in the introduction of environmentally-friendly grocery bags, including biodegradable and reusable fabric options, thus significantly reducing Italy's generation of solid waste.[9]
