PriceSmart is almost ready to inaugurate its seventh shopping club in Costa Rica located in Santa Ana.

The new PriceSmart is located in the area of Río Oro, Santa Ana, and will be opening doors this October, generating approximately 150 direct jobs. PriceSmart carried out several job fairs with the help of the Santa Ana Municipality with the objective of hiring personnel that lives in a close radius.

“It is important for us to hire people that live in the area where we are opening a new club since we are the new neighbors and we have to contribute with the development of the area. The west side of San José has reacted positively and we will be able to offer always high quality products at low prices”, explained Marco Torres, Country Manager for PriceSmart .

This new location involved an investment of approximately US $12 million, the highest so far by this company in the country, which obeys to the sustainability practices used for the construction of this new club.

The new club will offer the same facilities and variety of products as the rest of the locations in the country.

This is one of the many other commercial businesses that will open doors in Santa Ana in the next few months, the rest include, Clínica Bíblica, Santa Ana Town, Santa Ana Country Club and Oficentro 310.
