G. Cave and Mr J. P. Shepherd, two well respected Barbadian businessmen of the time.<\/p>\n<p>When I was growing up this was one of the main places to go to shop and as a kid it was something to look forward to in hopes of getting some nice toy you didn't have before.<\/p>\n<p>Where, then, on Broad street, it was one big multi-floor department store, now it has become more of a mall with independent business owners selling their products. In January 2021 the mall was renamed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgetowndutyfree.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bridgetown Duty Free<\/a> after Cave Shepherd withdrew from the partnership. This is sad considering it's place in history.<\/p>\n<p>Unless you are in that area, most likely getting off a cruise ship for  few hours, I can't see why anyone would go there anymore at this point. There are so many more convenient options now.<\/p>\n<p>The only reason I can think of is that Bridgetown Duty Free still offers the largest selection of duty free items on the island. You can save up to 25% off US prices and if you missed buying liquor at the airport you can get a hefty discount off liquor as well. You need to bring your passport or license and know your airline departure flight in order to avail yourself of the discount.<\/p>\n<p>The various vendors sell beachwear, perfume and cosmetics, souvenirs,  jewelry and accessories, all forms of clothing, shoes, and houseware. They also sell furniture, kitchen appliances, and electronics.<\/p>\n<p>There are other locations of Bridgetown Duty Free off Broad street which are more convenient in my opinion but they may not have everything available in the main branch. There is one next to the gas station that's next to Trimart in Rendezvous mentioned above. So save yourself a trip to town unless you absolutely have to go.<\/p><\/p>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/li>        <li class=\"ile-content-container ile-number-alignment-top\">\r\n            <div class=\"ile-content-box\">\r\n                <h2 class=\"ile-title\">Sheraton Mall<\/h2>\r\n                <p class=\"ile-content\"><p>This site was originally housed by Intel as a chip manufacturing plant before it was converted to a mall after Intel closed it's subsidiary here.<\/p>\n<p>If you have an electrician working at your house and they need some specialized electronics, most likely this is where they are going to go.<\/p>\n<p>If you need furniture this is where you're going to go. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopcourts.com\/barbados\" target=\"_blank\">Courts<\/a> is one of the shops.<\/p>\n<p>If your phone is broken or needs an adapter or even a new sim card from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheratonmall.com\/mall-directory\/digicel\" target=\"_blank\">Digicel<\/a>, this is where you go.<\/p>\n\n<p>Contact Sheraton Mall 's shuttle service at 437-0970 to arrange\nyour pick up  from South Coast Hotels &amp; Guesthouses<\/p>\n\n<p>Here is additional information from  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheratonmall.com\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\">their website<\/a><\/p> <p>\"Sheraton Mall has the distinction of being the first as well as the largest mall on the island with over 120 stores and services including a Food Court and multiplex cinema.\"<\/p>\n\n<p>The mall features two floors and several outside shops that carry accessories and apparel, electronics, health and nutrition, home accessories and more.<\/p>\n\n<p>The mall is centrally located on the South Coast, only a few minutes from St. Lawrence Gap, with ample free parking and late shopping until 6:00pm, Monday through Saturday.

Massy\u2019s imports lots of fruits and vegetables from other countries so you will find those intermixed with locally grown produce. Many items that appeal to tourists are also stocked including things like kefir. In addition they have an extensive alcohol section selling both hard alcohol and wine.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>Trimart Supermarket<\/h2>\n                <p><p>There are three Trimart Supermarket locations in Barbados. The closest one to Dover and <a href=\"https:\/\/sapphire.dreamhosters.com\/barbados\/villa\/shoreshire-sapphire-beach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shoreshire villa<\/a> is in Rendezvous on the main road to the left and it's about a 22 minute walk away.\n<\/p>\n<p>You can look <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ChannellandTrimartSupermarkets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> for their other locations.<\/p>\n<p>I find that they are not as well stocked as Massy in recent years but they do have most of the stuff you would need.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>Jordans Supermarket<\/h2>\n                <p><p>There are three Jordans Supermarkets in Barbados.<\/p>\n<p>You can look <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jordanssupermarketbb.com\/contact-us\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> for their locations. There's one in Bridgetown, the capitol of Barbados.<\/p>\n<p>You will use this supermarket mostly only if you live on west coast.<\/p>\n<p>It also is well stocked and has  a wide selection of quality groceries that you would expect to find at any international supermarket.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>PriceSmart<\/h2>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricesmart.com\/site\/bb\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PriceSmart<\/a>  is a membership based shopping franchise with a location in Barbados. If you do purchase an annual membership and you have a car to get there it's a great place to shop. Located in Lodge Hill, PriceSmart also has an excellent grocery store with affordable prices but some of the items are sold in large quantities so you will have to see if that works for you. Prepared foods such as whole cooked rotisserie chicken etc are also offered for sale.<\/p>\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricesmart.com\/site\/bb\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PriceSmart<\/a>, it's also a one stop shop for  electronics, clothes,  appliances and furniture etc..  So pretty much anything you are looking for is usually available here.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>Oistin's Fish Market<\/h2>\n                <p><p>Oistin's fish market, in Christ Church, is where you generally go to get fresh fish. Barbadians almost never buy fish at the supermarket.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"https:\/\/sapphire.dreamhosters.com\/barbados\/villa\/shoreshire-sapphire-beach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shoreshire villa<\/a> in Dover it's a 38 minute walk so I wouldn't recommend you walking. Follow my post about <a href=\"https:\/\/sapphire.dreamhosters.com\/barbados\/getting-around\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">getting around Barbados<\/a> to determine transportation options.<\/p>\n<p>While you're in Oistins also look over the fresh vegetables sold there and in the immediate vicinity on the main road. You may find that Oistin's is actually your most economical place to shop if you're a fish lover.<\/p>\n<p>What I do is ask random people \"who sells good fish?\" and they will point you to their favorite person that they shop with. Use your judgement and you will find someone good.<\/p>\n<p>The fish doesn't get much fresher than this because the boats are right on the other side of this building.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>Wine World<\/h2>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wineworldinc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wine World<\/a> is the leading retailer of wine and spirits in Barbados. Sure you can buy wine at the supermarket but you will get it at a much better price here especially if you buy it by the case.<\/p>\n<p>They sell all alcohol types, not just wine. They have several convenient <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wineworldinc.com\/store-locations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">locations<\/a> throughout the island.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>West India Coffee Co.

And since you're moving, I figure you might want to start furnishing and fixing your house, so I've included that too.\n<\/p>\t\t\n\t\t\t<p>Since almost everything is imported, I wouldn't say that Barbados is a destination for shopping, unless you can't get it elsewhere. However some of the stores sell duty-free to tourists so at least you will be able to buy stuff for cheaper than a local person.<\/p>\t\t\n\t\t\t<!-- Start Gradient Ordered Bullet Style -->\n    <ol>\n            <li>\n                <h2>Bridgetown Duty Free (formally known as Cave Shepherd)<\/h2>\n                <p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CaveShepherd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cave Shepherd<\/a> had been in existence since 1906, after being originally opened by Mr R. G. Cave and Mr J. P. Shepherd, two well respected Barbadian businessmen of the time.<\/p>\n<p>When I was growing up this was one of the main places to go to shop and as a kid it was something to look forward to in hopes of getting some nice toy you didn't have before.<\/p>\n<p>Where, then, on Broad street, it was one big multi-floor department store, now it has become more of a mall with independent business owners selling their products. In January 2021 the mall was renamed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgetowndutyfree.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bridgetown Duty Free<\/a> after Cave Shepherd withdrew from the partnership. This is sad considering it's place in history.<\/p>\n<p>Unless you are in that area, most likely getting off a cruise ship for  few hours, I can't see why anyone would go there anymore at this point. There are so many more convenient options now.<\/p>\n<p>The only reason I can think of is that Bridgetown Duty Free still offers the largest selection of duty free items on the island. You can save up to 25% off US prices and if you missed buying liquor at the airport you can get a hefty discount off liquor as well. You need to bring your passport or license and know your airline departure flight in order to avail yourself of the discount.<\/p>\n<p>The various vendors sell beachwear, perfume and cosmetics, souvenirs,  jewelry and accessories, all forms of clothing, shoes, and houseware. They also sell furniture, kitchen appliances, and electronics.<\/p>\n<p>There are other locations of Bridgetown Duty Free off Broad street which are more convenient in my opinion but they may not have everything available in the main branch. There is one next to the gas station that's next to Trimart in Rendezvous mentioned above. So save yourself a trip to town unless you absolutely have to go.<\/p><\/p>\n        <\/li>        <li>\n                <h2>Sheraton Mall<\/h2>\n                <p><p>This site was originally housed by Intel as a chip manufacturing plant before it was converted to a mall after Intel closed it's subsidiary here.<\/p>\n<p>If you have an electrician working at your house and they need some specialized electronics, most likely this is where they are going to go.<\/p>\n<p>If you need furniture this is where you're going to go. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopcourts.com\/barbados\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Courts<\/a> is one of the shops.<\/p>\n<p>If your phone is broken or needs an adapter or even a new sim card from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheratonmall.com\/mall-directory\/digicel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digicel<\/a>, this is where you go.<\/p>\n<p>Contact Sheraton Mall 's shuttle service at 437-0970 to arrange\nyour pick up  from South Coast Hotels & Guesthouses<\/p>\n<p>Here is additional information from  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheratonmall.com\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">their website<\/a><\/p> <p>\"Sheraton Mall has the distinction of being the first as well as the largest mall on the island with over 120 stores and services including a Food Court and multiplex cinema.\"<\/p>\n<p>The mall features two floors and several outside shops that carry accessories and apparel, electronics, health and nutrition, home accessories and more.<\/p>\n<p>The mall is centrally located on the South Coast, only a few minutes from St. Lawrence Gap, with ample free parking and late shopping until 6:00pm, Monday through Saturday.
