ICM Grocery Shopping with Matti!

There's news that SM will finally build its first mall in Bohol. I am excited about that! It's been years that this has been rumored but for some uncertain reasons, the plan just won't get realized. According to some write-ups, there are politicians who are stopping the entry of huge mall establishments in favor of a corporation that is already established on the island.

I remember my cousin who works in the HR department of SM City who went to the island for hiring purposes, that was pre-pandemic but she became silent after a few months, she said the plan was canceled so they won't continue with the employment of Boholanos for their branch.

So for this new rumor, I hope this will be realized.

In relation to this, my husband and I together with our little one visited ICM or Island City Mall owned by the Alturas Corporation, this mall is where we often visit when coming to Tagbilaran City.

I went for groceries as we were staying in the city for three days. In the video, you'll see how the grocery store of ICM looks plus, we were able to get Matti to ride on some arcade rides just beside the grocery store.

If SM will open in Bohol, I am sure more opportunities will also be opened to the Boholanos. This will help as well with employment and more positive effects to the locals. Also, having more mall options is also a good thing.
