Costa Rica Easter Week at Wal Mart



These 3 photos are of Hipermas, San Jose, Costa Rica.  Wal Mart bought it out.  Even though this is a Wal Mart store, the liquor is covered up during Semana Santa, Holy Week, Easter Week.

Wal Mart Costa Rica Undergoes Changes

Wal Mart Costa Rica bought Hipermas.  Hipermas was a large Costa Rican grocery chain.
In April 2011 there were a lot of changes made such as the orange signs posted and many rows were rearranged.  One of the store managers told me that there would be employee training to improve service.

Wal Mart has quite a presence in Costa Rica.  The top 2 photos are just outside of a Wal Mart not far from where I stayed in Barrio Aranjuez.  It is called Hypermas.
The bottom photo is from Mas pro Menus which means More for Less.  This store is in San Jose's downtown.
