El Ahorro Supermarket

El Ahorro Supermarket is a supermarket chain in Texas, United States. It caters to Hispanic Americans. As of 2010 Rafael Ortega heads the chain.[1] Ortega also owns the La Michoacana Meat Markets chain.[2] The Spanish word "ahorro" means "saving."[3]

As of 2010 El Ahorro had 15 regular stores in Texas. During that year the company entered an agreement with Supervalu, owner of the Save-A-Lot chain.[4] The companies agreed to convert six former Save-A-Lot stores into co-branded Supervalu El Ahorro stores. The partnership that operates the co-branded stores is named Adventure Supermarkets LLC. Of the co-branded stores, three are in Houston, one is in Brownsville, one is in Harlingen, and one is in Victoria.[2] Operations as "Save-A-Lot El Ahorro" began at the end of May 2011.[3] After the Davis Food City chain of stores closed in 2007, some locations were acquired by El Ahorro in 2008.[5]
