I was chatting with the son a few month ago in Playero (he married Rolandos partner) and just said new storage but in a emergency maybe a new store if needed, jijijiji, Actually a brilliant idea with all the new construction to the East AND NOW TO DRIVE INTO SOSUA IS A NIGHTMARE (and police have stopped me multi times heading into town, once for the 25mph at the hospital and another to check my drivers license, really!!!) --- its their hang-out before super polo now and waiting for gringos -- 2000 gets you off the hook !!!
They actually have radar guns there? First time I've ever heard of that. I go by there once a week. Never been stopped.

Maybe Sirena will now understand that they will need to finally improve in order to compete if in fact it is built as a Playaro Supermarket. Because Nelson certainly knows that his market share will get even bigger from the areas of Sea Horse, Casa Linda, Lomas Mironas, and Perla Marina just to name a few.
Sirena won't double down because a small supermarket based in Sosúa decides to make another branch less than 2 miles of the main branch.

Remember, as a corporation it is, they're heavily focused on more affluent areas of DR by power purchase volume right now (Santo Domingo Este, Nagua, San Pedro, the whole south side of the DR).




And the family (Ramos family) is stepping away from the company and now they placed a new President


Sosua isn't the "center of the world". And Sirena knows it.

Is that really happening? Another Janets there has been the rumor since the project started but no signage yet.

Sirena has had renovations to their store in Sosua which have take forever even in Dominican time, but many feel it is not better than before. I don't think Sirena are going to change to try and match a couple of local Playeros because they are a countrywide chain and have their established style.

At any rate, more options are better for the consumer. More consumers are already clogging our two lane one horse town roads.
Signage went up last week. Janet's Mall is what it's called.

They keep them with the breathalyzers.

Singletravel - So did I get it right that the building Playero is constructing is not a Supermarket but instead just a warehouse?
