talking about variety, giant has the most variety of brand and goods

compared to aeon and tesco. while tesco most least.

Where else got giant in s.alam?

if u go to UK, there are a lot of mini stores on street corners. they are small and everywhere like kedai runcit but branded tesco/sainsburys etc with prices and selection like hypermarket. I expect this is what will happen in malaysian big cities as well. i dont like walking 2 hours looking for stuff in a big hypermarket 20mins away from my house.

99 rejoice..

U just quoted my answer

Within the radius of sacc mall there are giant stadium..section 7..and shah alam mall sec 9

I prefer giant more than tesco actually. Tesco sucks.

Hello tupai!

ehh i thought giant manjung is doing okay

Giant is still performing better than The Store i guess.

with all the new service like online grocery on 11street, seems like a lot of the hypermarket need to be more competitive to survive. People now can easily compare while at the shop, and I realize a lot of their things are overpriced (even though you think its cheap). Only certain promotional/sale item is worth buying.

"The current closing down of Giant and Aeon Big has nothing to do with disruptive technology as total online sales in Malaysia is hardly 5%.

And online sales of groceries / toiletries / fresh and sundries (which is 80% of a hypermarket business) is hardly 0.5 % in Malaysia

Also note the closing of the Giant branches are not in key urban areas like Klang Valley.

This actually shows rural purchasing power is gone down drastically
Business is down by 4.8% in hypermarkets which caters to middle and low income population, simply because purchasing power for basics necessities is down."

but Giant also closed down their viva home outlet la.. and it's in Klang Valley
