There is a grocer in (Admin note - name removed) which started six months ago. It is near Bandar Utama and doing brisk business. They have varieties and fresh fish from Kuala Selangor daily. The catch is that the prices are exhorbitantly high.
I complain to the supervisor and to my surprise she boldly replied " our store is for higher end and upper class only " The name is (Admin note - name removed). please avoid unless necesary.

Such arrogance, yes, avoid
Budiman
went there 2 weeks ago,yes indeed it only cater for upper market becoz the place is up market mah.anyway some food are import and cannot find in local stores like those in Ampang area where it cater for expats.
Budiman
it is a free market unless items are controlled items.

if the expat is staying around there, I don't think they will be travelling all the way to Ampang to get what they need. My friend who was just transferred to US says she is paying US$5.00 for a bottle of soy sauce from an Asian grocer.Originally Posted by jan tomaswaki

simple rule of life - willing seller, willing buyer
unless you subscribe to a fully moderated life, like in this Forum
No one force you to part with your money ... do they not have price tags?

The first post did not say imported European foods...so i oso tot it was a normal outlet
Budiman
Even if it is imported , you don't have to be arrogant.
Budiman
Have I said the wrong thing here?
Budiman
there is a niche chain owned by the ong-tai-kim group from sentul and there , they are very low end,dirty, crowded supermart and its HQ too.
With the influx of IKAs nationwide, this local chain made a strategic decision to go higher end with lessons learned from the 1st outlet in bangsar. U will find that they now have at least 3-4 outlets, but onlyin klang valley. AND yes, the mgmt people in bangsar is equally arrogant and look donw on locals...they have a reputation of bully attitude towards their suppliers too.
