Ta-Ta
Ta-Ta is a chain of supermarkets and hypermarkets in Uruguay, with a presence in the national territory.
History
In the 60s, the Almacenes Tía supermarket chain decided to establish itself in Uruguay through an expansion process.Initially, the company was going to maintain and use the name Almacenes Tía for these stores, but because that name was already used in the country, it had to modify its name by choosing Ta-Ta, the affectionate way in which many Uruguayans and Latin Americans they call their grandparents.
Finally, Tata would open his first department store on June 13, 1956 on the corner of 18 de Julio Avenue and Carlos Roxlo, thus establishing a revolutionary business model, of course unknown at the time.
Later, in the mid-90s, Tata ventured into supermarkets, developing an expansion plan, contributing to decentralization and opening stores in the interior of the country.
In 2011, this process culminated when it reached department number 19. In 2013, after the purchase and acquisition, it absorbed all the MultiAhorro supermarkets, adding new branches and presence in the country.
