Pueblo Xtra International, Inc.
 PROFILE
The outlook isn't always sunny for Caribbean grocer Pueblo Xtra International. A leading operator of supermarkets and video rental outlets in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, it is still reeling from Hurricane Georges' wrath (all of its stores were struck by the 1998 storm). Its 50 supermarkets (44 in Puerto Rico) operate under the Xtra, Pueblo, and PuebloXtra names. The company also holds exclusive rights to operate about 40 Blockbuster video stores in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands; about half are located within its supermarkets. Pueblo Xtra, which was founded by Harold Toppel in 1955, has been a subsidiary of Venezuela-based Cisneros Group of Companies since 1993.
