The LP Commerce et Distribution is a one-year programme at the IUT de Kourou, that equips students with expertise in retail management and strategising for markets, preparing them for roles in distribution, merchandising, and sales. The curriculum includes modules like 'Fondamentaux du Management et du Marketing', 'Commercialisation des biens et des services', and 'Management de la distribution et des activités commerciales'. The programme is delivered in partnership with local enterprises, with a significant portion of the course spent on-site, and it culminates in a 'Mémoire de vie en entreprise' project, a 10-ECTS in-depth business report.

Students gain skills in team leadership, communication, and project management, with a focus on practical, real-world application. The programme is designed to make graduates immediately employable, with a strong emphasis on strategic thinking and adaptability to economic and technological changes. Graduates are well-prepared for managerial roles in retail and distribution, such as manager of a commercial unit, responsible for a retail section or store, or a commercial strategy consultant. The programme is structured around a 20/32 split of academic/industry time, with 528 hours of coursework and 32 weeks in enterprise.
