Alfamart provides rental income to local lessors for the use of their land or building space. Alfamart taps local contractors to construct the stores. Alfamart’s growth also benefits the local vendors who supply the stores. Alfamart also partners with MSMEs as they can rent space inside the store or in its vicinity for their small business. Whenever new stores are opened, members of the local community are hired. Aside from offering them a career path within the company they are also provided with training and experience to help them develop skills that will benefit them throughout their career.
