Tiendas 3B, a Mexican hard discount retailer, has demonstrated significant growth in its store footprint and sales volume. In the second quarter of 2026, the company reported a 38.7% increase in net sales to 26,037 million pesos compared to the previous year, alongside the opening of 155 new stores to reach a total of 3,624 units. Despite this revenue growth and an expanded logistics network, the retailer saw net losses expand to 386 million pesos during the same period.

The company’s operational model relies heavily on a limited assortment of approximately 800 products, with private labels accounting for 54% of sales as of 2024. This strategy focuses on essential goods to maintain low prices and high inventory turnover. Quality assessments by the Federal Consumer Protection Agency (Profeco) have validated several of these private brands, including Vaca Blanca milk products and various household items like Dreamy Aroma and Cloudy toilet paper.
