Bodega Aurrerá is a Mexican discount store chain and subsidiary of Walmart de México y Centroamérica (Walmex). Founded in 1970 in Mexico City, the brand was originally part of Grupo Cifra, a retail conglomerate established by the Arango brothers. Following Walmart's acquisition of majority control in 1997 and the subsequent corporate reorganization in 2001, the original "Aurrerá" hypermarkets were converted into Walmart Supercenters, while the "Bodega Aurrerá" format was retained to serve the discount market sector.
