Mantra
About
On Mauritius, Mantra is a supermarket at 18 Nalletamby Rd, Vacoas-Phoenix, Mauritius, serving the island's central plateau. The name is well known among shoppers in Vacoas-Phoenix, where the store operates as a supermarket rather than a small corner shop.
Mantra is known for its supermarket format, and first-time visitors should expect a full grocery store rather than a boutique. Shoppers rate Mantra 4.2 out of 5 across 129 reviews, a figure that reflects steady custom from the surrounding area. The store keeps a website at http://www.mantrafoods.mu/, and its location places it within reach of Port Louis.
Mantra's website carries its current information, and the 4.2 out of 5 average across 129 reviews gives a clear picture of how shoppers receive it. Vacoas-Phoenix sits in the island's interior, so the store draws from the towns around it.
Visitors based in Grand Baie, Flic en Flac, Pereybère, Beau-Vallon, Le Morne, Belle Mare or Mahébourg can reach Vacoas-Phoenix by road, though the island's main resorts sit on the coast. Mauritian Creole is the most widely spoken language, so a few words of it help in shops and markets. Sega music and dance, led by the ravanne drum, are traditional on both Mauritius and Rodrigues.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mantra known for?
Mantra is a supermarket on Mauritius, and Mauritian Creole is the most widely spoken language across the island, so shoppers can expect everyday grocery retail in a Creole-speaking setting. Rodrigues, part of the same republic, has its own related Creole, though Mantra itself is on the main island.
What should first-time visitors expect at Mantra?
First-time visitors to Mantra will find a supermarket on Mauritius rather than a specialist or tourist-oriented shop. Mauritius was a Dutch, then French, then British colony and became independent in 1968, and that layered history shapes the everyday retail environment in which Mantra trades.
Where is Mantra located on Mauritius?
Mantra sits at 18 Nalletamby Rd, Vacoas-Phoenix, Mauritius. Vacoas-Phoenix is an inland town on the main island, so the supermarket serves a residential area rather than the coastal strip.
