Description
The Lider Express Supermarket chain (with over 80 locations in Chile) sells groceries, home electronics, school supplies, and home supplies – and fast food. The construction of this 4,000 m2 supermarket in Puerto Montt in southern Chile posed a challenge because of the wet climate and high water table at the job site.
Products Used
