In the past, only the big cities are ‘awake’ at night while many parts of the Philippines are just sleepy towns with laidback lifestyles where people go home at 6PM and go to sleep by 8PM. They don’t go out much at night to buy food because most of them are asleep, anyway.
Considering that now many cities and towns in the country are slowly becoming urbanized, many people now need a convenience store where they can buy what they need no matter what time of the day they might need it. Thanks to convenience stores like MINISTOP, they can find everything they need without having to wait for regular stores and grocery marts to open.
A MINISTOP store is a 24-hour convenience outlet offering various merchandise such as toiletries, common grocery items, and food ranging from chips and drinks to various ready-to-eat products, including smoothies, ice cream, and even full meals.
Today, you can find plenty of MINISTOP outlets in the Philippines that it could easily compete with the local scene.
