A major Asian supermarket chain based in California with 51 locations in eight other states has picked a renovated Chandler strip mall for its entry into Arizona.
99 Ranch is anchoring the former Anderson Fiesta Shopping Center at 1760 W. Chandler Blvd., which was purchased by NewQuest Properties in October 2019 with an eye toward converting it into a foreign food mecca.
99 Ranch Market, also known as Tawa Supermarket, was established in 1984 by Roger Chen, a Taiwanese immigrant who felt there was a cultural gap in the typical American supermarket.
“Our company slogan, ‘For 100, we try harder’ demonstrates our commitment to always provide the best products and services to the communities we serve,” it states on its website. “Ranch Market represents freshness and symbolizes our promise to deliver the freshest products.”
