Florings, the long time minimart and grocery
along Rainbow St. and Lavander St., has now closed. This store within SSS Village has been around for decades. I remember when I was little that Florings was one of the reliable stores to buy food and some body products if we ran out of some or needed something quickly. My mom used to buy canned goods, crackers and some knick knacks at Florings in the '70's when they moved to Marikina. It started out as a small sari-sari store and slowly grew occupying a bigger corner lot.
I guess with the advent of a myriad of convenience stores which have all been more accessible than before, that Florings naturally was going to lose out to them.
Nevertheless, Florings as served the thousands of residents within the vicinity for nearly 4 decades. To Florings, thanks for the service.
awwwwwww...
ReplyDeleteDyan kami madalas mag grocery! coz its only a few blocks away from our house..
Hindi na kasi sila nag grow... dapat may konting development manlang sana...
But i'm sure something bigger will emerge dyan sa florings..
talaga ? di kaya nagkasabay tayo minsan mamili dun ? hehehehe ! actually ako bihirang nakabili dun. pero di pwedeng di alam ang Florings ng mga taga SSS. Dun kaya palaging dumadaan ang jeep kasi. ;)
