Grupo DB Reopens Manaus Store as "Atacado da Família Amazonense"

Grupo DB has reopened its Distrito unit in Manaus, Brazil, as part of its expansion strategy for the "Atacado da Família Amazonense" (Amazonian Family Wholesale) model. The store, located at Avenida Rodrigo Otávio, nº 3.810, in the Japiim neighborhood of the South Zone, was formerly a hypermarket and has undergone significant restructuring to modernize its operations. This transformation aims to provide customers with greater savings, variety, and convenience. The revamped DB Atacado e Varejo Distrito spans 14,000 square meters with 7,000 square meters dedicated to sales, featuring 39 checkouts, including eight self-service options. It also offers over 300 parking spaces for enhanced customer comfort. The store now caters to both individual consumers and small businesses, offering a comprehensive range of products and services. These include a butcher shop, fresh produce section, electronics, groceries, a bakery, a snack bar, beverages, and household items. The on-site restaurant, renamed "Manaô," has been updated with new facilities and equipment, continuing to serve buffet-style lunches with barbecue, soups, and desserts from 11 AM to 2 PM. Gabriel Pedrosa, Director of Marketing and Expansion for Grupo DB, highlighted the positive customer reception of the wholesale format, citing competitive pricing and a complete shopping experience. He stated that the Distrito unit's conversion is a strategic move to invest in modern, efficient stores that serve both families and small entrepreneurs in the region. The store will operate from Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 10 PM, and Sundays and holidays from 8 AM to 9 PM, reinforcing Grupo DB's presence in the South Zone and its commitment to serving the needs of Amazonian families and local entrepreneurs.
