An indication of the opening is the dismantling of the temporary stalls surrounding the eastern wing of Market City where SaveMore will be located as shown below. Delivery vans are also transferring all dry goods and other products.

The other portions of Market City is still under construction but SM, the largest locator in Market City is bent on opening next week. More photos below.

SaveMore is SM’s way of bringing in the SM shopping experience nearer to where our shoppers live and work. It is a neighborhood store that prides itself on great merchandise selection, convenience and excellent customer service. Instead of customers having to go to the mall, SM is now becoming part of our customers’ neighborhood.So what’s the difference between SM Hypermarket, SM Supermarket and SM SaveMore? – SM Supermarket is a grocery inside SM Mall; SM Hypermarkets are groceries-cum-department stores—both places that customers have to plan to go to. SaveMore, on the other hand, being part of the neighborhood, creates convenience for impulse purchases or last-minute needs.

Because they are smaller, with an area of not more than 5,000 square meters, they can be put up almost anywhere, bringing them closer to where customers live and work. Despite its smaller selling area, merchandise listing is still complete, but limited to about 25,000 articles.
