Thats why i never go to any of their malls. and if i have a meeting where i absolutely have to go? I park outside or someplace else. I do not eat and pay for meals there. I do not purchase anything there. you will not find a single receipt or shopping bag from SM at my place. I know of a few people who do this too. we are a few but at least our money does not go to those greedy B##&$*. To name a few: -Mahal ang grocery nyo! humihingi ba kayo ng mas malaking percentage from your concessionaires? or mataas lang kayo mag mark up? - Kayo lang ang mall na naniningil ng 1000-1500 pag nag apply ng work permit for construction and a separate cost to use your elevator. Bakit? special ba building nyo? Ayala Malls, Robinsons, Shangri-la and other small Arcade/Malls do not charge us anything for permits. Ayaw nyo bayaran night shift guards ninyo? Sa Shangri-la may EMT pa na naka standby. - walang bayad! Kapal nyo! - Forcing restaurants to use your bank or even your SM Bonus bottled water. Di ba monopoly yan? I have to pay what? 20 pesos for your stupid SM Bonus Brand. how big is it? 300ml? when i can buy half a liter for the same amount. Lahat ng stalls ninyo forced to sell SM Bonus water - Monthly? or is it quarterly - 1500 for drain maintenance for resturants? na liquid sosa lang naman binubuhos nyo. tapos ayaw nyo pag kami na lang gagawa - Nung nag open kayo ng Sport Store nyo. nag ban kayo ng construction ng one or more branded footwear/apparel. why? so the brand will be forced to sell thru your Sport Store. - natatakot ang retailers sa inyo. if you have a mall location that is not viable, the retailers cannot decline to put up a store there for fear of getting banned. even if the store is bleeding to death. - some of their people from Head office schedule a meeting with you at a certain time but lets you wait for an hour or two. - yung mga head ng malls nyo mayayabang. pag nag rounds may mga alipores pa na naka flying V formation. I could go on for hours here kaya lang tumataas na blood pressure ko. pababain ko muna tapos dadagdagan ko. ;) Feel free to ad to this though I hate SM too for many reasons. some are personal, some i learned from business associates and friends who have either dealt with them as suppliers, contractors or retailers.

But some merchandisers naman are very friendly and supportive. What I hate about SM is the yearend subsidy they get from their suppliers which amount to millions of pesos and this is a requirement. This is how they are able to build their malls which are sprouting all over the country. I doubt that they declare this to the BIR since they don't issue official receipts for the subsidy.

'Even Worse, they do not pay their suppliers..but of course they have a strategy to make it as if they are good customers. AS per experience, they will charge you for store opening supports, marketing support, distribution fees, anniversary support, and all the fees charges & support etc etc etc that at the end of the day you end up owing them money instead of collecting your A/R for the deliveries you make..many suppliers or start up business people make sm as the ultimate customer & prioritize selling to them but beware...they are not good customers & will eat you alive! Dont sell to SM if you want to succeed in business & earn a decent living...The time of the old man Henry Sy as a professional businessman is not anymore applicable on how his children manage his business..

My friend bought from SM hypermarket's groceries...someone stole an item, although the workers there (including the manager) said that they put the item in the plastic bag! Someone stole it! Definitely it is the worker! Another thing is that 7 of the eggs (container of 12-dozen eggs) were spoiled eggs! SM has SAD and FURIOUS workers who are tempted to steal. They have WORKERS who don't do their JOB well! I hate SM!
