Comment: the author of the article is not a new user but registered in September 2007 and has been adding/editing articles about SM stores and malls since August 2008. — Athaenara ✉ 03:06, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Strong keep. Hypermarket, being part of the largest mall chain SM Supermalls in the Philippines, is notable. Supermarkets are inherently notable. That does not mean that few Google hits or it has never been heard in the United States, the market is not notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JL 09 (talk • contribs) 04:27, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Keep. The subject, which belongs to the Philippines' largest chain of malls, has 19 branches. [http://www.smhypermarket.com/hypermarket/index.php?p=393 source] The article needs to be edited, though, as some were copy-pasted from the source. Starczamora (talk) 08:18, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Keep – Philippines' most famous mall; we have an article on Wal-Mart (U.S. mall), so this is about a Philippine equivalent. As such, it asserts notability. —MC10 (T•C•GB•[{{fullurl:Special:Log|user=MC10}} L]•EM) 02:04, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Keep. It is the best shopping mall here in The Philippines. Just like as other major retail supermarkets like as Wal-Mart. ApprenticeFan ^{talk contribs} 10:36, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
