This is one of my on-going The Heritage Trail blog post series. Read my disclaimer here first :D. This is article No. 5. |
Among all the new shopping malls that sprang up in Seremban town, it's easy to forget this once a popular shopping outlet for the budget conscious. Even though it's old, Tan Brother's Supermarket is still thriving against its more popular competitors.
The older generation called it "Chew Jau Wui Koon". Again, the chinese name doesn't make any sense to me. Having attended only at a Malay medium school, it was only years later I understood that "Chew Jau Wui Koon" means The Association of the Chew Clan (yes, my chinese vocabulary is very bad). The supermarket is located just below the association, hence the local name.
Tan Brother's Supermarket Seremban. |
Every year before the school reopens for the new year semester my parents would bring us here to shop for our school uniform. School bags, shoes, uniform, writing utensils all are available at the very affordable price. This supermarket turns into a carnival-like atmosphere with back-to-school slogans and discount signs everywhere.
I still remember back then the supermarket has no air-conditioning. Only fans on the ceiling and it's hot at day and humid at night. But we would spend hours in there and the excitement of getting a pair of new school shoes and uniform makes me and my siblings forget that we are practically sitting inside a large cooking oven. Even that I actually did all my school uniform shopping here till I graduate secondary school.
It's just located next to The Store Seremban (New Gold) |
This supermarket is still operating till this day, serving a pool of its loyal customers. The last time I ventured into it was a couple years ago. It's a tad cleaner and neater with some interior renovation but still with the ceiling fans.
Perhaps one day I could still shop for school outfits for my child in the future at this place again.
The GPS coordinate of this place is 02° 43.542' E101° 56.228' and it's situated just beside the The Store Seremban (New).
