|
- Box Store
- 9 Jungshanheng St. Hsin Hsing
|
A tiny little shop with a good assortment of western goods. Soup, spices and canned chili are a few of the many items. |
|
- Carrefour
- 109 Shichuan 1st Rd. Sanmin
- 117 Dashuen 3rd. Lingya
- 356 Hetung Rd. Chien Chin
- 291 Linshen Rd. Feng Shan
|
Carrefour has ALOT of stuff. Food, furniture, cd's plants. you name it. They have many stores throughout Asia but have not made it into the America yet. Consequently, they do not carry alot of American style goods but oterwise a good place to shop with several locations around Kaohsiung. |
|
- Costco
- 656 Junghua 5th Rd.
|
Costco is a warehouse style American chain. They carry clothes, food and alcohol. Good steaks and bread. They also have ground beef which is hard to find. Like all warehouse stores they sell in bulk. A little advice though, if you see it, buy it. The stock constantly changes and it might not be there next time. Membership is required. |
|
- Dollars
- 463 Mintsu 1st Rd. Sanmin
- 157 Guanghua 2nd Rd. Chien Chen
|
Dollars has just about everything but their not a western store. Sleeping bags, dish soap deodorant, and alot of food gives you the idea of the mix they carry. You won't find taco shells but they have most everyday items. |
|
- Geant
- 171 Ping Teng Rd. Sanmin
|
Another huge superstore that carries just about everything. They seem to have a good selection of clothing in larger sizes. Smart and Final is their U.S. version. |
|
- Makro
- 1 Feng-Ping 1st Rd. Ta Liao Town
- 235 Mintsu 1st Rd. Sanmin

- 132 Liouhe 2nd Rd. Chien Chin
