Seems strange to want to build so close to their very successful outlet in Quesada area. UNLESS the rent in Quesada is crippling them!
I think that Consum own the site in Lo Marabu, Dona Pepa, Quesada, as far as I heard, and they take rent from the WOK, Chinese outlet, Vets etc.
If it's true about the land at the Lemon Tree road, It's sounds like they are taking advantage of an opportunity that could pay off. That area which includes Pueblo Bravo, Lo Pepin, La Fiesta and El Raso is a 'food desert', as the big supermarkets including Lo Marabu Consum are not within easy reach without a car and even with a car it will be much easier for the residents around the Lemon Tree Road. Also the new house developments are still being built along this part of the Lemon Tree road as well, so opportunity abounds!
Saying all that there have been 'promises' before of other shops/supermarkets around these areas and nothing came of it. Lets hope this one does actually materialise!
