Atac

Atac (styled ATAC) is a brand of predominantly food stores operating supermarkets, created by the Docks de France in 1985 and is a subsidiary of the Auchan Group, since 1998.

The idea of the Atac concept, was a supermarket which was near bare, with no frills and low prices. One of their slogans was "ATAC, attack prices" Most Atac stores disappeared in 2009, when most stores took the name and brand of Simply Market, there are today still around 80 Atac stores left, mainly in Bourgogne, which are owned by the associated group Schiever.

History

In 1959, the first Docks de France supermarket is opened in Bagneux.

In 1982, the Docks de France group built and tested the first store under the name of Atac. In 1985, after the success of the first Atac store, the group embarked on the construction of a network of this brand, respecting the specifications.

In 1996, the Auchan Group takes over the Docks de France group and former supermarket outlets, such as Super-Market and Suma Doc were rebranded. Franchisees entered the fold of the Auchan group during this operation.

    Public transport in Rome before 1909

    The first form of public transportation in Rome, which opened in 1845, was horse-drawn omnibus from Montanara to St. Paul.

    When Italy was united, there was a growing demand for public transportation services, so many private companies were created, all doing different, unrelated things. In 1876, an agreement was made between the City of Rome and the Roman Omnibus Society to create more horse-drawn buggies.

    In those same years, Streetcars began to develop. The first line was from piazza del Popolo to Milvian Bridge. In the next few years, many other streetcars began to develop, and by 1895, there were 5 lines.

    In 1900 the SRTO opened 10 Omnibus lines, 4 animal-drawn trams and 11 electric trams.
