Gollo Strengthens Costa Rican Presence with New Ciudad Quesada Store

Alajuela, Costa Rica — Costa Rican retailer Gollo, a subsidiary of Grupo Unicomer, continues its ambitious expansion strategy with the inauguration of its 154th store in Ciudad Quesada, San Carlos. This latest addition marks a significant investment of nearly US$20,000 in the region, underscoring the company’s commitment to bolstering local economies across the country.

The new store, located in Plaza El Encuentro, diagonal to La Ford, will operate seven days a week, from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. This prime location offers convenient access to the growing consumer base in Ciudad Quesada and surrounding areas.

Gollo’s expansion strategy likely involves a complex interplay of factors, from securing financing and navigating regulatory hurdles related to consumer protection and competition law, to strategic real estate acquisition and human resource management. Their success will depend on effectively managing these considerations while adapting to the evolving Costa Rican market. A key element to watch will be their ability to differentiate themselves and offer value in an increasingly competitive retail landscape.
