which is better??? LANDERS or S&R - Bacolod City Philippines

[@teammelkerphilippines3620]

From the US I went to Costco all the time, I moved here and lived in Alabang for over a year right across the street from S&R and would go there every week Now living in Bacolod I was excited when I saw they were building an S&R here! Ive been to Landers here and I wasnt very impressed

[@wesgarrett993]

Hello. I went to Landers last year and joined. I like the store. I'll be back to Bacolod later this year, visit S & R, and will join also. Great video and thank you for sharing!

[@asianight9188]

Cheers👍🏽

[@Charles-rd6ku]

Thank you for the wonder video! You've done a marvelous job

[@lionhearted1969]

Landers indeed is catered more towards the upscale market with its array of merchandise and the way their interiors are organized. Even the exterior design of their store looks more upscale. Indeed, Landers know how to compete with the one who came before them. That's the mantra of any business who wants to take on a challenge to compete. A challenger has to be better than the one being challenged.

[@masterb5683]

Agreed. Landers gives you a clean feel.

[@jameslonergan5840]

Planning a trip to S&R this week. Thanks for the video!

[@AñdyOmar]

Wow they got both in Bacolod? That is pretty cool honestly. I can't believe Bacolod is massively improving. Wondering hows the internet nowadays with the fiber optic plans

[@asianight9188]

Problem is brown outs, so many recently, WiFi is ok usually

[@RoyFJ65]

We are members in both stores, S&R rules but sadly their pizza quality has gone down drastically.

[@mattgustafson2516]

That Tillamook ice cream is good. You might want to try some of that.

I’m amazed and baffled how Bacolodians can afford these items and selections available and the turnover of these items especially the perishables and freshly baked goods.🤔 I was at Landers late February. At least you can get a free haircut 😊

This is a great side by side comparison video. It must have been a pain in the ass to edit back and forth between the two. For anyone sitting on the fence, this is the video you need to watch.

[@asianight9188]

Cheers Danny. Sometimes I make videos that I would want to watch myself. Yes it was a pain to edit, but it kept me out of the sun in the Aircon which is so needed at the moment. Crossing my fingers no brownouts tonight🙂

[@l0uann3]

​@@asianight9188 tnx for posting. Was deliberating which store to join

[@virgiesipat8630]

I get it now..the reason maybe S&R has taken into consideration on making it a two storeys and the Supermaket is elevated is because they look into possiblity that in the future...the place might be reached by the sea water due to the rising sealevel or the place is lower in elevation and a catch basin during monsoons...

[@asianight9188]

Maybe🙂

[@MarkBulgrin]

It's because they have did not have enough land for a parking lot next to the store.

[@virgiesipat8630]

@@MarkBulgrin they could have put the parking on top instead if that's the point.

Food in Landers for the win. I love the fish n chips there, pizza, and rolls

(Even more) Abundance comes to Bacolod! If only I could taste and eat everything I could see right there. I'll definitely visit Landers there in a couple months and try out the new restaurants around Bacolod. Pendy's and Lopue's in the 70's/80's , Robinson's in the 90's, SM in the 2010's used to be the real go to places for groceries. Bacolod has come a long way! Edit: I didn't know they also sell non edible stuff (furniture and appliances) - can't eat those!

[@asianight9188]

Good choice of appliances

[@ricardotongol567]

Similar to Costco here in the US.

[@asianight9188]

Never been to Costco, I went to a dollar shop near Hollywood boulevard once that had great deals on Chocolate

[@teammelkerphilippines3620]

Its partly owned by the investors of Costco thats why its so similar, and the pizza is almost identical to Costco in the US

[@Macjohn1419]

Do they get busy enough to turnover the merchandise quickly? My concern with Landers is the expiration dates. The freezer section is okay for the most part, but even then eventually it has to go. Even the chips and chocolates will expire. Over here, the club stores like Costco, Sam’s Club and BJ’s are very crowded and the merchandise turnover is fast. Just wondering. 🤔

[@asianight9188]

A lot of Landers stuff is close to best before dates anyway, that's why they buy it cheap

[@timredd]

So it's swings and roundabouts, depending on what you are buying. I assume price wise, the two are very similar, or am I wrong? I like the whisky selection, though.

[@asianight9188]

Things are similar in price except when it's promos or sales which attract a lot of people

[@watfordtripod]

It’s a bit like Coscos in England But the selection in Bacolod looks so much better. Be there soon to try it all…Bring on the Inisal chicken

Can not believe how good the chicken inersal is 2 years has past and to be back,why did I go back to England I love this place. I envy you😄

[@asianight9188]

Inasal is good. I think it's just that England is particularly bad. I read an article about a migrant that payed a trafficker to take him back to France, he had got so sick of England😁

[@Jomster777]

Seems like the S&R in Bacolod doesn’t live up to its Manila counterparts. Presentation-wise, looks like they cheaped out on a lot of things. S&R in Alabang for example has great presentation of its products (looks wider inside compared to the one here in Bacolod) and has a great selection of imported goods. Landers in Bacolod however looks consistent to the one in Alabang and is in fact wider. I’d say Landers won here in BC. Still, S&R has the advantage of location as it is close to the dense populace near SM.

[@asianight9188]

I will use s&r less than Landers, probably just go there for take out salad and to buy sausages. Landers is more comfortable and closer to home for me. Landers is more Soci

@virgiesipat8630....Landers Superstore is a homegrown Cebu-based membership store owned and operated by the same company (8990 Holdings) who pioneered the socialized housing in the Philippines, Decca Homes. They also owned Kuya J restaurant chain, Isla Sugbo Seafood City Buffet restaurant (Cebu & Taguig) as well as Majestic Restaurant (Cebu) chain, Cebu Grand Convention Center and a slew of businesses in Cebu. Megaworld is only inviting Landers to their property to attract buyers and clients to their township.

Biggest complaint I have heard about Landers is from those without a vehicle. They complain because the trikes aren't allowed in Megaworld for Landers.

[@asianight9188]

And I agree too, trikes should be removed from all main roads anyway

[@JaakJacobus]

Let's be realistic! These shops aim for the upper middle class customers. Think customers with their own car or those that can afford taxi's. The ones that take a tricycle to shop are expected to go to PUREGOLD or SM supermarket at most. If you only want to spend PhP 10 or 15 for the ride, you surely aren't going to buy strawberries at PhP 2.000/kg. I don't buy them here in Belgium if the price for a crate of 4 kg is that high.
