It's a "carnaval" of low prices at Makro Atacadista. The company, Brazil's top cash-and-carry wholesaler, has about 30 Makro warehouse stores offering food and nonfood products (food accounts for 80% of sales). The high-volume, self-service stores, located in Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, and Venezuela require customers to register for membership. The company's key customers are small- and midsized businesses, including caterers and food retailers. Makro Atacadista has increased its use of communications technology, including the addition of a satellite system. Swiss-based Okram South America Holding, mostly through subsidiary SHV Brasileira, owns Makro Atacadista
