Where will I buy groceries and do other shopping in Ecuador?
When we asked people living in Ecuador about good local restaurants, they mentioned...
"Local shops are terrific for produce, meats and most every day needs. It's like shopping in the US years ago with one shop just for meat and another for fish, etc. Many expats make the trek into Salinas to shop at the big box grocery stores or the mall at least once a month for those hard to get items," remarked another expat who made the move to Rio Chico, Ecuador.
"Crucita is close enough to Manta or Portoviejo to get the major shopping done. There are small stores here in town and there is a larger grocery store that just opened," explained one expat living in Crucita, Ecuador.
