History
The first four Supermercados Selectos stores opened in 1978, after Carlos Torres, a Puerto Rican businessman, took the initiative of organizing a number of small mom-and-pop ("colmado") stores group into one integrated company, in order to compete against larger supermarkets. Another one of the chain's first owners is Ignacio Veloz Camejo, honorary president of Centro Unido de Detallistas de Puerto Rico since 1991.
By 2010, the chain operated a total of 32 stores. By 2014, the chain had reached 37 operating stores.
