(Bea Cabrera)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Established last month, Amelda\u2019s Market is your new grocery store that is located along Middle Road across J\u2019s Restaurant. Its location is perfect for office workers and residents because it is in the middle of several offices and a nice neighborhood offering customers accessibility and convenience for their shopping needs. <\/p>\n<p>According to store supervisor Leovert S. Estoper, Amelda\u2019s Market focuses on its two unique selling points\u2014low prices and quality products. \u201cWe offer low prices than most of the other supermarkets out here. While other markets put 20% to 30% mark up on their goods, we do 5% and when people come here, they will see the difference and realize our goods are really affordable\u2026 we know the situation of the local people and we are here for them. For as long as we can offer good service and a mark up of only 2 cents to 3 cents we hope that customers will come and check what we have,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe take pride in having quality control to manage and supervise every product or item in our store. We do that by checking each products everyday\u2014quality and expiration dates as no customer would like to buy expired items. We make sure that our items are good and fresh,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Estoper said that Amelda\u2019s Market is owned by longtime businesswoman Nilda D. Sison. \u201cThis is not Miss Sison first business as she managed a manpower and security agency and was also into general construction. But due to the pandemic, the income was slow so she decided to diversify into a different business venture which is now Amelda\u2019s Market,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_343610\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-343610\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/AMELDA-pix-2-300x135.jpg\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-343610\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Amelda\u2019s Market is spacious, clean, and all items on shelves are organized.

We sell products that are \u2018necessities\u2019\u2014food, drinks, medicine, etc. we also sell beauty products such as skin balm and rejuvenating set that are very affordable,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Estoper said that every customer is important no matter how big or small the purchase may be. \u201cWe want them to walk out of Amelda\u2019s Market feeling satisfied and comfortable with our goods and service.
