problem is not everybody like that
people with some money don't go NSK, they'd go AEON
which is why aeon survive until today

there is a market for each segment of people but nothing last forever in supermarket

other market is big player makan small player
supermarket is new player makan old player

but but but wet market busuk juga

niamah econsave

fark la the smell already can be smelled at carpark

niamah farkup place

everywhere punya also same

filthy shit

Why not, they are good in what they do......probably have network of suppliers over the years, who to source from and who not to source from. Trade secrets......

Probably.....why call attention to yourself when people can dengki over it........remember, it pays to be successful in msia, just don't be too successful or it will attract attention from certain parties.

Probably.........I have no idea why Grab would want to buy a grocery chain. If they are thinking to be like Amazon, they better make sure they know what they are doing...in as much as there's a lot of tech and UX around the preposition, they must not forget that a big part of grocery retail is the supply chain and while it worked in the US, it may not work in msia.....simply because americans eat processed foods, coming from the 3-4 food major food brands in the US.......msian still need the sayur, fruits, meats, asian stuff.....and this part of the products and supply are locally sourced, very easy to fuck this up if your good suppliers are chinaman companies still running on windows XP or vista.....

Don't know. My parents went grocery shopping at NSK once cause my neighbour always say hi NSK. After that never go back NSK. They complained nothing is cheap at NSK Vs giant.

It's their unbeatable experience in operating a super market and handling the supply chain lol.

lose to tesco during 2010s

lose to aeon big during 2020s

deserved to kena tapao-ed

Circle of life

Giant kill makro

99 kill giant

Lulu kill 99

because they tried to copy mydin. Mydin open mall but mydin only open in stratergic places. Giant meanwhile wants to dominate everywhere and cannot jaga quality so the customers all lari. Jaya grocer is the new giant but jaya grocer also very pandai have good online market.

when nsk kota damansara open
aeon kd dead...giant kd soon

LULU? kek

That I don't know,. Not my company, I don't kisah so much

not exactly true, i went to usj branch opening, plenty of people purchasing musang king there.
just because people have money, doesnt mean they will spend like nobody business. not all rich people act like atas people.

It went downhill after Teng family sold Giant.

Giant used to be cinis favourite, until tesco come along, then jusco.

once the cinis stop flocking to the super/hypermarket, you know they're done for.
it's not the cinis buying power, but rather their pickiness determines which place represents the best value for money purchase. even when it's slightly expensive, it's justified by being fresh, clean, or better quality as a whole.

this applies only to supermarket goers, not those hyped-up restaurants cinis flocked to and spend 1-2 hours queueing. those are just your regular sohais.

econsave

The Giant at Bayan Baru is having good business

Waiting for them to open a new supermarket as Jaya Grocer is losing its charm, not as good as before.

my theory - nightmarket and pasar pagi not as busuk as wetmarket/econsave or NSK since they only there for 1 day per week. so got another 6 day to clean up the area. Econsave/NSK worse since their wet part is in enclosed area.
