PARIS—Carrefour, Europe’s largest retailer, said on Sept. 3 that the head of yogurt maker Danone will sit on a food advisory committee the supermarket group is setting up as it seeks to boost sales of organic products.

Carrefour said in January it would revamp its food range and focus more on organic food as customers demand healthier products, under a global five-year plan to increase group sales and profits.
