sbst275 SG In June... Confirmed liao... The one at Woodlands Ctr... Taking over by NTUC... WDL Ctr shop owners, prepare for a hard time... Malaysians will suan the place once NTUC takes over... NTUC things very ex and it is those fools that think the 5% discount is a lot (When in fact, $20 can only get $1 disc) and DFI things cheaper
sbst275 SG Ah Death ar, sorry abt just now Yah... Your observation is kinda right, many Econ minimarts are not doing well... Rather it is those indv outlets that are still doing well...
sbst275 SG You can support Sheng Shiong, Dairy Farm, Minimarts... Dun support this Govt related minimarts that are out to profiteering
LazerLordz SG Shop and Save is owend by QAF Int’l.A Bruneian owned MNC if I’m not wrong…Hmm, we should have some Coles or Target stores here to provide stiffer competition to NTUC..maybe their Australian links will help us get cheaper dairy and meat products and fruit too..
sbst275 SG Used to belong to QAF... The parent co of Gardenia Later it was brought over by Cold Storage And notice something, those upgraded NTUC outlets, prices are higher
sbst275 SG The prob is this now, now only the WDL Ctr outlet is profitable (Very)... The rest are not profitable or even bleeding
sbst275 SG Not really... Cold Storage heartland outlets, pricing is comparable to NTUC or even cheaper... Giant, Shop N Save, Cold Storage, G Value, 7-11, Guardian are under Dairy Farm Int'l
deathscythe99 SG The smaller shops have to band together to ride through tough times, definitely. Moreover, I think it's really sad to see such nice mini-marts below your blocks being taken away and replaced with supermarkets, even though the range is wider, the nostalgia ain't there
sbst275 SG I have noticed that in recent years, NTUC has been getting proud... Look at their image, I mean their staff uniforms... BUT, notice their staff uniform, wore not long, the colour faded Also their prices has not been compeitive esp aft the coming of hypermarts
