Costco) is the world's largest chain-selling warehouse-style merchandiser. They offer high-quality and low-cost merchandise and provide a 90-day unsatisfactory return mechanism, allowing many people to pay a membership fee of 1,350 yuan per year. Also join the membership. At present, Costco has 13 branches in Taiwan, most of which are concentrated in the northern region. The Taichung store is located in Nanxun District. It is said that before the opening of the Tainan store in Taichung, more than 100,000 members were recruited. However, because the location of Nanxun store is too far away from Beibei, Xiqiao and Taiping, most consumers have to wait until the holiday to have time to shop, but because most of the crowds are concentrated on holidays, many members go to consumption. The traffic jam problem is often encountered, and the citizens of Taichung also hope that the city can open a branch in Taichung to evacuate the crowd. At the front desk, about 6,000 pings of the specific commercial area next to the city's Beibei MRT Plant was openly tendered. COSTCO won the bid for more than 975 million yuan. Taichung Second Store decided to settle in Beibei District. It is planned to build a basement and three floors above ground. The estimated investment is 3.5 billion yuan. The floor area of the main building is about 13,000 pings. After deducting the parking lot, the sales area is 4,000 ping. COSTCO said that it will choose to open a second branch in Taichung, mainly because the consumption power of the Central People is not to be underestimated. It is said that Taichung Store can create 10 billion in one year and become the market leader of Taiwan. And look at the potential customers in Miaoli, Changhua, Nantou and other places, it is expected to bring more powerful consumption power to the Taichung City. Taichung City's second store is close to the G0 station of MRT. It is not only convenient for transportation, but also has good parking space. It can also help the crowds of Nanxun store. After the opening, it is expected to drive business development and crowds near...
Read moreWhat's there to say about Costco that hasn't already been said? Exporting American culture all over the world; this location is no different. Step into America. The ugly concrete industrial building has all the hotdogs, pizza and fountain drinks you'd ever need. BIG bags of everything! Buy more! You think you're getting a deal, but you're really not. Here, have some diabetes with that heart attack and obesity while you're at it. But I digress, not really though. This location does have a good selection of fresh vegetables and fruits, and you can find a decent bottle of wine for around 300 NTD if you look. Be wary of the butchery department however, they tend to hide the old beef under the newer looking meat in the pre-packaged cuts just like most supermarkets. Long lines inside and out during the...
Read moreIt’s a love and hate relationship between the dearly beloved Costco and I. I love it because it reminds me of the states and cereal, and juices and cheese, avocados and bagels. But I hate Kt because Taiwanese people and their CARTS. LEARN TO DRIVE A DAMN CART AND NOT BLOCK PEOPLE’S WAY, PLEASE. GET OUT OF THE WAY!!! And the food sample lines are ridiculous. People just park their carts anywhere they want when they see free food, which in turn blocks up traffic. Oh my gosh so much patience is needed when I go to Costco. I usually go cart free so I don’t have to deal with the crazy traffic. Don’t go on weekends, you’ll have to cue up even before you get in. The parking line is crazy. Dear people who work at Costco, hat off to all of you. I don’t know...
