I noticed that there a lot of inquiries and clicks to the first post I created about this topic so I decided to create a new blog post for a more updated S&R membership information.
S&R offers a wide array of food items as well as household items, appliances, furnitures and even backyard playhouses and trampolines. It's like shopping in Costco - "Philippines-style". Roughly 70% of the stocks are American and other imported brands while 30% inventory are locally-sourced products.
Of course, there's a wide array of cakes and other desserts, even imported ice creams and when you get hungry, you can pizza and chicken, burgers and fries, soups and sausages among others. It's a one-stop-shop so to say.
Currently, there are two (2) types of S&R membership:
1. BUSINESS MEMBERSHIP
Currently, the OWNER or MANAGER of a licensed business are allowed to apply for a business membership card. Business membership is Php900/year. One additional card is FREE to the primary cardholder's spouse, domestic partner, or any immediate family member over the age of 18 and living in the same household.
"Ibig sabihin, sa Php900 kada taon, meron kang 2 business membership card na makukuha. That's 2 cards for the price of 1. Super sulit di ba?"
What are the requirements?
A. For Sole Proprietorship - Certificate of Registration of Business Name with DTI, Current year Mayor's Permit, VAT Registration Number
B. For Partnerships and Corporations - SEC Certificate of Registration, Current year Mayor's Permit, VAT Registration Number, Letter from the Head of the Organization authorizing representatives
C. A Director or Manager of a Cooperative or Non-Profit Organization - SEC/CDA Certificate of Registration, BIR Tax Exempt Status (if applicable), Letter from the Head of the Organization authorizing representatives
