What is Pricesmart's Impact on Smaller Businesses? | TVJ News 

Just like every other thing in Jamaica 🇯🇲 the hype is going to fade after a while

The mentality of Jamaican people is things from foreign is better than local goods

Always shop around, prices are not always the best at the big box store. Big box store your spending even when you not in there, because you pay the membership fee.

There will always be people to shop.. Jamaican people is just the hype..

Smh this is terrible. And that’s why we have NOTHING WE DO NOT CIRCULATE OUR DOLLARS AMONG EACH OTHER.

This place is the best so for and we still have to go to the regular store

It's only for now it will change some people love the experience of shopping in a larger supermarket at first just to see what it is like nothing strange about that

It should cause the smaller supermarkets to drop their prices and put other strategies in place in order to compete. People still have to go to them for single items. Competition means the death of those who won't/can't innovate.

THE SMALLER MARKETS ARE TOO PRICEY ITS THAT SIMPLE

I went to pricemart monthly but I also went to pricerite

I need a clothing store like that

You know what, the local businesses especially thw supermarkets need competition. It's so much easier to get compensated for spoilage and defective items than the other supermarkets/appliance stores in the area. Instead of complaining, they should improve their business process ans customer service. I'm not crying for thosw capitalists at all. Pivot or die out.

The membership system employed by pricesmart is a stroke of genius by operators please don't get me wrong i am not for it but it's still a midas touch, my honest opinion is i joined a membership club i $5000 to be in i get not even a candy wrapper for that money what is offered instead is discount on most if not everything you can afford now how i look at it is that whatever a person purchases that is discounted could sell originally for the discounted price

Jamaica free market killing Jamaica economy . It's not cheaper.

Local too expensive to be honest time hard

Let me say this pricesmart do alot especially for them worker's the pay tun up otherwise member it's a club so is your choice

Price mart is like Walmart liking all small businesses

It soon gone back to normal just wait yu think yu can tame jamaicans

Shoes store is a issue
