IBM signed the contract with Carrefour the second largest international retailer after Wal-Mart Stores Inc in June.
IBM said the agreement will allow the retailer to control costs and improve IT security, among other benefits.
Carrefour France's IT infrastructure will be hosted from IBM's first European green data center in Montpellier. IBM shares lost 8 cents to $101.65 on Monday.
