Giant Hypermarket

4.1(1,414 reviews)

About

In Penang, Giant Hypermarket is a local business. It operates as a supermarket on the Ground Floor of Penang Plaza at 126, Jalan Burma, 10050 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malasia. First-time visitors should expect a full supermarket rather than a boutique or convenience store, with the range and layout typical of a hypermarket format. The store sits within George Town, the island's main urban centre, so it draws both residents and visitors doing a larger shop. Shoppers rate Giant Hypermarket 4.1 out of 5, a figure drawn from 1414 reviews, and that volume of feedback makes it one of the more reviewed supermarkets on Penang. The rating reflects steady approval rather than a niche following. Reaching the venue from the island's resort areas is straightforward, since George Town connects by road to Batu Ferringhi, Tanjung Bungah and Gurney Drive. Batu Ferringhi lies along the same northern coastal route, making the store a practical stop for visitors staying there. The address places the supermarket in the heart of George Town, close to the heritage core. Five photographs of the store are on hand for shoppers who want a look before setting out. The store's website is http://www.giant.com.my/. Penang stays warm and humid through the year, and the west-coast islands see their driest stretch from about December to April. Food on Malaysian islands blends Malay, Chinese and Indian influences, with fresh seafood and rice forming the base of most meals. Flights, ferries and road bridges connect Malaysia's islands to the mainland, and Malay and English are the main languages spoken.
