Established in 1948 by Que Hua Pho, more popularly known as “Papa George”, Iloilo Supermart has withstood changes through time. Over the years, since the success of Papa George’s first supermarket venture-- Washington Supermart (still operating along Guanco Street), he then established the first Iloilo Supermart branch at Valeria Street. Its expansion soon followed in the 1980’s, thus, the opening of the Jaro and Molo branches.
