Terme(s) apparenté(s)
commissary économat n. m.

Syn.
magasin de compagnie n. m.

Déf. :
Établissement de commerce mis ŕ la disposition des salariés et de leurs familles par des entreprises en vue de leur faciliter l\'achat de biens de consommation domestique et d\'utilité courante, lorsque celles-ci sont situées en un endroit peu accessible et oů l\'organisation de la vie communautaire est embryonnaire. Cet établissement est géré par l\'entreprise elle-męme qui fait office de commerçant. Ce systčme a donné lieu ŕ de nombreux abus dans le passé, alors que des entreprises forçaient leurs employés ŕ s\'approvisionner ŕ ces magasins et ŕ solder leurs achats par des déductions opérées sur un salaire qui, parfois n\'était pas encore gagné.

Nu prea exista o denumire in engleza, probabil nici o institutie de acest fel.
Ai putea traduce \"economat markets\" si sa explici.
