Live/Living with the times

Haven't been to my local Carrefour lately, though, so I can't say I've seen the slogan in context.

In phase with the world

I know that this chain (like many others) sale products from all over the world, specially food (mexican, chinese etc.)
So I'd say that they're in phase/up to date with the world
