Financial crisis or not, Santo Domingo is on its way to becoming the shopping capital of the Caribbean, if it hasn't already made the grade. Construction is well under way for Swedish home furnishing center Ikea, and Grupo CCN will soon be opening its Jumbo supermarket in the Luperon commercial district. La Sirena is also investing in the area. Plaza Lama is working on another mega store on Avenida Maximo Gomez at the intersection with Nicolas de Ovando, and another at Av. Charles de Gaulle in Santo Domingo East. Newly opened in Santo Domingo is the Papa John pizza franchise, and Americana Departmentos is moving fast on its new expansion at JF Kennedy, across the street from Ikea, as reported in Listin Diario.
