BEST PHUKET SUPERMARKETS

PHUKET FOOD SHOPPING

Phuket supermarkets are a great place to food shop if you want to save on your dining expenses. After all, your food bill is a big part of your vacation spending.

There are four major Phuket grocery stores to choose from; Big C Supercenter Phuket, Tesco Lotus Supercenter and Tops Supermarket. Each one of these supermarkets has a wide variety of local and international food products to choose from.

All of these supermarkets are a good place to food shop, but we base our supermarket choice on best value and convenience.

One special tip… shop for all your basic food staples such as frozen food, meats, dairy products, canned goods, breads and pastries at the supermarket and buy all your fruits and vegetables at the local open markets...

This will equal a “HUGE” savings.
