“Jumbo” supermarket to open in the Dominican Republic

It has been announced that a new mega-supermarket will be opening in the Bavaro/Punta area, which will sell international products. If this does indeed come about, it means that supermarket shopping in the Dominican Republic will offer tourists, retirees and second-home owners more familiarity and variation.

It is comforting for our homeowners in this region to think of being able to relax in exotic surroundings, miles away from mortgages, school runs and work, and still being able to walk into a supermarket and recognise what is in front of them. What luxury!
