'''Bellegarde Est''' is the variation of Bellegarde that serves the Caphirian provinces of Caenna, Cesindes, Iscasta, [[Luria]], Netharra, Ovalutia, and Salbis. It operates on much the same principle as the other brands under Bellegarde's umbrella, but has a unique feature where on certain days (typically Saturdays), the store will showcase and sample a dish from a random province across the imperium to customers. The theory behind this is that it expands the palate of Caphirians living in east Urlazio and creates a more memorable experience for shoppers in the store. A similar feature is being piloted in standard Bellegarde stores in Milan.

Brands and operations

Alvo

Alvo is a subsidiary that, unlike its parent company, focuses exclusively on grocery items and is usually located in areas with limited space, such as university campuses. Initially, Alvo was known as a discount grocer but in 2010, Bellegarde standardized prices across its various brands, including Alvo, Bellegarde, Bellegarde Est, and Esquerda. As a result, Alvo lost its discount grocer status. Nevertheless, Alvo remains a popular choice among health-conscious individuals due to its emphasis on locally-sourced produce.

Bellegarde Est

Bellegarde Est is a regional variation of the Bellegarde supermarket chain that caters to the seven Urlazio Caphirian provinces of Caenna, Cesindes, Iscasta, Luria, Netharra, Ovalutia, and Salbis. It operates under the same principles as the other Bellegarde brands but offers a unique feature where the store showcases and offers samples of dishes from a random province across the imperium to customers on certain days, typically Saturdays. The intention behind this initiative is to expand the palates of Caphirians living in east Urlazio and create a more memorable experience for shoppers in the store.

The Bellegarde Est stores prioritize sourcing local and regional produce, similar to other Bellegarde brands, with an emphasis on providing fresh and high-quality produce to its customers. In addition to this, the store offers a wide range of grocery items, including dairy, meat, bakery, and packaged goods. Bellegarde Est also features a pharmacy and a health and wellness section. The store's layout is designed to maximize space and provide a convenient and hassle-free shopping experience for its customers.

A similar feature to the province-specific dish sampling in Bellegarde Est is being tested in standard Bellegarde stores in Milan, with the goal of enhancing the shopping experience for customers and introducing them to new and exciting culinary experiences from different regions.

Bourseiller

Bourseiller is a gourmet grocery store chain subsidiary of Bellegarde that is based in Esserie. Most locations also have a full-service kitchen, offer cooking and wine classes in their culinary school, and offer catering services. Bourseiller deliberately limits floor space allocated to packaged products, allowing more space for fresh produce, meat and seafood, bulk products, and chef-prepared items. The idea behind this is to create a more organic and The chain has twenty-six locations (twenty-two in Milan and four in Luria).

Esquerda

Esquerda is a marque of Bellegarde that is specific to western Alexandria. Its model is based on self-checkout (although normal registers and cashiers are found in the stores) and convenience, where customers can use produce scales that allow them to print bar codes for food, ready-to-eat sections at the front of the stores, as well as a modified layout that places most purchased items up front and least at the rear. Because of Bellegarde's adoption of many of these services across its brands, it has considered converting Esquerda into Bellegarde stores.
