The Overseas Supermarkets group has opened its second store in the Algarve, in Portimão, following the success of its first ‘Iceland’ shop (as it is commonly referred to due to it stocking Iceland frozen products) in Guia.

The spacious new shop opened on Tuesday at 10am. Managing director Garry Richardson told The Portugal News the second store comes as the result of demand, and suggestions that Portimão would be a good place for expansion.
He added other locations, such as Vilamoura and Quinta do Lago are being looked at for a third store.
The successful Guia store opened in 2011 and has seen a steady influx of shoppers over the past six years.
Overseas Supermarkets owns a number of ‘British supermarkets’ across Iberia.

Oh Wow!!!
Wonder if they'll have those frozen fish packs - especially Portuguese sardines - caught fresh; frozen; flown to the UK; & then flown back to the Algarve for sale...
Be kind to the planet.
