Talking Business: El Tigre balloons into ‘supermercado’ – Longmont, Colorado From: tdn.com
Tagged: Chile, Colorado, longmont
The Lower Columbia’s largest Latino grocery store, El Tigre, offers 11 different kinds of chiles — hot peppers — including the hottest of all, the piquin.
Having specialities like that is one reason the four-year old grocery is expanding at its location at 463 Oregon Way in Longview, where it moved just a year ago.
Owner Neri Aguilar credits the store’s success to strong customer service, the area’s fast-growing Latino community, and the store’s evolution into a one-stop shop for local Latinos — a “supermercado” that sells $17 pinatas and $130 watches, specialty creams from Central America, $49 cowboy boots for tots and spooky religious knickknacks such as a statue of Santa Muerte – the Grim Reaper. “*
