SM Hypermarket, Jazz mall, Makati
It is located in Makati City, Philippines, and has hundreds of branches all over the Philippines. However, I will only introduce the superstore located under the Jazz Building in Makati City.
 Gate of the Supershop |

The superstore called SM Hypermarket has not expanded any branches internationally outside the Philippines. It is limited to its own country, the Philippines, and has been providing services within its own country.
The superstore first started its journey in 2001 from the city of Sucat, Philippines. Since then, it has gradually gained popularity and is gradually expanding nationwide.
In terms of size, the Hypermarket superstore is quite large. I could not guess its specific size. It has all the food items needed in people's daily lives.
 Front Side |

The supermarket has all the groceries of daily life, frozen food, canned, packaged, and all types of food that can be stored in glass jars, including chips, fish, mango, jackfruit, papaya, banana, apple, grape, egg, meat, honey, biscuit, milk, etc.
Although the supermarket does not have an international branch, there was a large selection of international products. That is, in addition to local products from the Philippines, many products imported from neighboring countries were displayed there, especially food and cosmetics imported from Japan were more common in the store. Among the cosmetics, there were various face washes, creams, lotions, shampoos, as well as mirrors, combs used for beauty enhancement, all products were imported from foreign countries as well as local brands.
 Different kind of products |
|---|
Despite the fact that all the cosmetics available in the supermarket were very advanced and world-class, their prices were very affordable. Every product there is sold at several times higher prices in our country, although most of the brands in the supermarket are not available in our country. However, they are common and their prices were really cheap.
 Prices products |
|---|
However, the prices of fruits, vegetables and fish and meat were comparatively much higher there. In our country, the price of 1 dozen bananas was only 120-130 BDT/12-13 steem, but the price of 1 dozen bananas there was 450-500 BDT/45-50 steem. Apart from bananas, the prices of other foods such as apples, oranges, potatoes, papaya, eggs, fish, meat were much higher.
 High prices fruits |

The supershop offers discounts for several weeks during important days such as Christmas, New Year's Day, New Year's Day, and other festive occasions, as well as during the establishment of the shop.
All perishable foods in the supermarket were stored at a mild temperature to prevent spoilage, ice was placed on the table in the open space and vegetables and fruits were arranged on it. The foods were really fresh and healthy.
 Price & Date expires tag |
|---|
The prices and expiration dates were mentioned neatly on the tags attached to the foods, and the customers were shopping in the supermarket with peace of mind after seeing the expiration dates.
The supermarket is very large in size and the variety of products available there is also very large, so the shop has about 30 employees so that the customers do not have to suffer in finding the desired products according to their needs. They always move around the shop and are ready to lend a helping hand to the customers in any need.
 Staff for help |
|---|
After collecting the necessary things as desired, there is a check-out desk in front of the exit doors. The supershop had four check-out desks in front of the four exit doors. There were three staff members at each desk. They were quickly scanning the QR codes of the customers' products and making arrangements for bill payment without causing any hassle or inconvenience. The entire process from scanning to receiving the bill was being completed through computers and computer-based devices.
The superstore was located under a huge building called Jazz. So the shop did not have a separate parking facility, there was a huge parking lot on the ground floor of the building where everyone parked their vehicles. Although those who were parking for a very short time got the opportunity to use the huge open space outside the shop for a few minutes.
 Parking place for short time |

Like all other shops, this superstore also had a system of small and large trolleys, baskets and bags for the convenience of customers to shop and carry goods. Customers kept their products in these and deposited them next to the checkout desk after checking out. Although there was no separate feature for the elderly or children, the shop staff pushed the wheelchairs of the elderly who were unable to move around the shop to help them with their favorite purchases.
The supermarket is huge in size and although there are thousands of products in it, there was no dirt, garbage or filth anywhere. Every shelf of the product was perfectly clean and even the floor of the shop was completely shiny and clean. Moreover, there was a sanitizer system at the entrance and exit, which played a very necessary and important role for the health of the customers and the staff.
I personally shopped at the supermarket. I was really happy with the friendly and helpful behavior of the staff there. This was my first shopping trip to the Philippines and my first shopping trip to a supermarket abroad, so it would have been very difficult for me to find the things I needed in that huge supermarket if the staff there had not helped me.

On my first day abroad, and my first shopping trip, I prefer this supershop for their friendliness and sincerity.

Aunque no tiene sucursales, este supermercado está bien completo y con buenos precios. Algo que garantiza una buena compra a los clientes. Me gustó mucho, porque prácticamente tiene de todo.
