Luanda — The national director of Commerce, Gomes Cardoso, Saturday in Cacuaco, near Luanda, announced that another six outlets of the "Nosso Super" supermarket network will be inaugurated in the capital until late this year.

The national director of Commerce said that Luanda will have a total of 12 supermarkets of the network, as another six outlets will be added to those existing until December this year.

He said a Benfica's "Nosso Super", Samba district, will be inaugurated in the first fortnight of October, followed by Rangel's later the same month.

The official said as well that the just-inaugurated 23rd supermarket is equipped with an ATM system.

Meanwhile, speaking to journalists after the inauguration, Luanda governor, Francisca do Espírito Santo, said the shops under Presild offer great public health advantages.

Built in four months time, the supermarket has 43 employees of the 72 planned. It has more than 4,000 items on sale, 25 to 30 percent of which locally manufactured.

A total of 4,500 new jobs have been created since the start of the "Nosso Super" network throughout the country.

Presild was launched in 2006 by Angolan Government with a view to organising and modernising the commercial activity in the country, thus expanding the network of supply of basic commodities to the population. The whole project comprises the construction of 31 outlets throughout the country.
