Astaphans Open Now

Astaphans (formally J. Astaphan & Co. Ltd) is a long-established supermarket and retail centre located at 65 King George V Street in Roseau, Dominica’s capital on the west coast (Saint George Parish). It has been part of the local retail landscape since the early 20th century, evolving from a basic grocery outlet into one of the island’s most recognised shopping destinations.

Astaphans combines a downstairs supermarket with a broader department store upstairs, offering a wide range of products under one roof, from everyday groceries and produce to household items, clothing, accessories, and personal care products.

The business remains a community staple in Roseau, known for its practical pricing, variety of basics, and convenience for both locals and visitors seeking supplies without heading outside the city centre.
