Economy Market

Although this small grocery is not perfect. This grocery has a lot of popular brands of Filipino, Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese goods like pantry essentials, rice noodles, egg noodles, vegetables, snacks, coffee in 2 different sizes (the ones in bigger packs and in 10 sachets. There are more Filipino goods here where you can buy anything. Trust me, there are a lot of snacks, candies, biscuits, chocolates, and every brand you recognize in the Philippines. Selection is huge here like 4.7/5.Prices is comparable like a supermarket but if you live in San Leandro, Hayward and San Lorenzo. This is the place to go. 4/5.I would not suggest buying meat, not a lot. I would rather go to 888 Manor or another 99 Ranch or other butcher near that area.The smell is clean and not too stinky or smelly like the one at 888 Manor Market that is located across the street.This is your neighborhood grocery store!

So here's the thing, it's another Asian grocery foods market in the heart of a small San Leandro neighborhood. The only kicker which I just found out is that owner of THIS market is practically my neighbor out here in Union City.....so you knowwwww which one I'll be reppin' from here on out! This market in actuality, is much more cleaner and organized, then its competitor across the street The selection may not be as large, but you're able to find things easily and 'cuz again, it's much more organized. This one also isn't so busy, so you'll be able to check in and out. You won't be bumping other shopping carts in this grocery store. Lastly, there's always parking in the front because this lot isn't shared between other restaurants.

Economy Market isn't much to look at. The outside barely has any signage, and they definitely don't spend any money on outside marketing or keeping the inside pretty. But what they do well is have several different Asian food items in stock at a very affordable price. This is very fortunate for those of us who live in the area. There are several Asian markets around (including one across the street), but Economy Market offers the best value around. I've heard several customers say live outside the area and often stop in when they are in San Leandro. I don't hear that at the other Asian markets!One note: if you are not familiar with Asian markets, don't bother asking for help at one. Just wander around and try purchasing something new. Or just look on the internet while you are in the store. Unfortunately, this store doesn't have that many staff, so you won't find anyone to help you in the aisles. Also, the market isn't open super late.Otherwise, this place is great. There's always space in the parking lot, and it's never that busy inside. Not a fancy store, but just one with good values.

I've been going here since I was a kid. Very nice/friendly staff and prices are cheaper than other Asian grocery stores. My go to place...

Great old school Chinese Market in the Hood. They carry a wide multitude of Asian items . They also have a nice meat section . They have a big selection of Chinese sausage at great prices . Very convenient beats going to Downtown Oakland for Asian groceries.

Economy Market has changed a lot since i shopped here. they now have a vast inventory of filipino products that rivals seafood center. the southeast goods are on par with ranch 99.didn't have time to check if pricing is competitive or not3.5 starsbuys: "marigold" thai tea juice bar 4/2.99-tasty. lots of filipino flavors too (halo halo, turomissing at economy-fresh baked goods, pastries-deli, fast food section-liquor, alcohol-parking. only 5 spaces in front.-safe drivers. everyone drives like a maniac here.-no chinese newspapers, only tagalog ones.

I know of Economy Market, yet I've only been there once before today. A nice little neighbor Asian store. It has a lot of selection, considering the size of the store. What I love about the store? The convenience factor...promixity--it's about a 5-minute drive. It's ideal for last minute shopping...that one ingredient you forgotten to pick up. There are no crowds and long lines to contend with, like the supermarket chains. When I was there this evening, there was one other person ahead of me at the checkout counter. In & out access was superb. Cannot top that when you're in a great hurry. Another thing I love so much is the snacks galore! There were baked goods from Goldilocks, breads from Sheng Kee (red bean toast...my fave!), crackers, cookies, and other munchies your heart desires. Not just one flavor, but many variations to your liking. I prefer this little market over Foodnet, which does have a lot more produce to choose from.

I like the consistency of this market, and they keep what I need well-stocked. They feed my Samyang noodle addiction and they have the spiciest Thai chili peppers in the produce section. Nice variety of Asian and non-Asian products.

Economy Market is one of the better Asian markets and it just so happens to be the closest to my house. Those of you who may have poked through my reviews probably notice an abundance of Asian cuisine, well what can i say my parter loves her some Asian food! Really really loves it. So she was blown away when I started to show her the Markets in the Manor where I live. Economy was the first since it's right on the strip and so we grabbed a cart and went in. The place is very big for an independent shop and is chopped full of all the wonderful delights you would expect to find at a smaller local market. You can spend a good half hour in here just looking at stuff, but it's best that you just bring a list to shop with. They're good for your quick fix shopping needs and Porter's market is right across the street just in case you need something that this place doesn't have and you, (like me) prefer to support local businesses. Economy Market has been here as long as I have lived here and it seems to have been here a lot longer than that. We in the manor just had a remodeling of our strip a little while ago and the face lift definitely has revitalized the area. This place has seen a huge influx of customers and they deserve it. The only thing is, at Economy, if you just so happen not to be Asian , like myself, (yes my last name is Lee, but it's the English surname) you might just get weird looks, like a scene kid who wondered into roosters roadhouse by mistake, (points for the local reference?). While Economy is awesome, it's not the best, but if you look through my reviews you'll find a spot not far from here that is unrivaled and superior to any local Asian Market.CHAD

I go to this store mainly for an elderly relative. It's basically a hole in the wall and keeping the store clean and tidy seems to be a low priority for the owners. There are generally 2 Asian ladies that work their registers, a middle aged one and a younger 30ish one. The middle aged lady has decent customer service skills. However the younger lady is just flat out rude. She's someone that simply never learned any manners. She treats you like you're imposing on her time. After she rang up my groceries I'm the one who said thank you hoping to elicit a positive reaction. She just looked at me with a blank stare.
