Where will I buy groceries and do other shopping in Chile?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Chile about good local restaurants, they mentioned...

"People living in Chile typically buy groceries from supermarkets, local markets, and convenience stores. Other shopping can be done at malls, department stores, and specialty shops. Additionally, many people in Chile shop online for groceries and other items," said another in Chile.

" In Pucon there are three large stores. Unimark, a Walmart food clone with more imported products. A Expres Lider that is quite complete, three El Tit stores with a hardware and lumber yard included. Across from the Express Lider is a farmers market greengrocers store where in season fresh veggies can be found. All organic and local grown with no pesticides or fertilizers. There is a Falabella store, like a small Sears with an on-line catalog system, local delivery or pick-up at the store. All of these are on the main drag of Pucon which in every city in Chile is named Bernardo O'Higgins. For larger purchases, Villarica has the same stores but also a larger hardware store and more specialty stores. As construction is booming, there are many lumber yards and businesses selling windows, doors, roofing, flooring and appliances. Finding something as simple as raisins or BBQ sauce, for example, can be a challenge. ," explained one expat who made the move to Pucon, Chile.
