I. Highlights

Increase of gross income
During the third quarter 2002 the Company presents a 10.3% increase in gross
income, which amounted to US$78.7 million, corresponding to a 23.9% of net
revenues. This is a result of the policies implemented by the Company in order
to increase gross income margin by means of Category Management, negotiations
with suppliers, development of non-food areas and private labels and the
cancelation of some practices such as wholesale of items included in
promotions.

Opening of new stores
During the third quarter, the Company opened two new stores in regions: Ekono
Miraflores supermarket in the city of Vina del Mar (September 12, 1,408 sq.
m.) and one Lider hypermarket in the city of Rancagua (September 17, 7,336
sq.m.). Thus, at September 30 of the current year, five new Lider hypermarkets
and one Ekono supermarket have been opened in regions, and six Ekono
supermarkets have been transformed into Lider Vecino hypermarkets in Santiago,
with a total increase of 36,551 sq.m. of sales area. These openings and
transformations are consistent with the Company's strategy to increase
national coverage by expanding into regions.

II. Comments from the CEO

Sales
During the third quarter 2002 same store sales decreased by 4.0% and total
sales increased by 5.7% in comparison with the same period of 2001. These
figures evidence the stagnant economic conditions affecting the country, with
low consumption levels and high unemployment rates (9.7% countrywide in
September 2002). Sales for the quarter, in particular during the month of
September, were also affected by the National Holidays on Wednesday 18th and
Thursday 19th, which implied that for most of the population the following
Friday was also a holiday, and in many cases some families took the whole week
off. Despite September sales, the Company performance in terms of sales is
still above that of the supermarket industry, which records a 2.9% drop in
same store sales as of September 30 of the current year, whereas D&S shows a
0.5% same store sales increase in the same period.

Gross Income, Operating Income and EBITDA
The policies implemented by the company in order to improve gross income
margin by means of Category Management, negotiations with suppliers, further
development of non-food areas and private labels, and the suspension of
practices such as wholesale of items included in promotions resulted in a
10.3% increase of gross income, which amounted to US$78.7 million,
representing a 23.9% of net revenues. However, recurring operating expenses
present a 23.2% increase over the same period the former year, exceeding
growth rates of total revenues and gross income. The increase in operating
expenses - resulting from our aggressive expansion program - had a negative
impact on the Company operating income and EBITDA, which decreased by 8.5% and
2.5%, respectively, in comparison with former year results.

Financial Structure
As of September 30, 2002, the debt/shareholder's equity ratio is 0.85 times
and the Company records financial debt in the amount of US$343.3 million, all
Chilean pesos denominated, with no relevant obligations in US dollars. Of the
total debt, 49.7% corresponds to short-term obligations.

New Store Openings
During the third quarter the Company opened a new Ekono Supermarket
(Miraflores) in the city of Vina del Mar, V Region (September 12) and one
Lider hypermarket in Rancagua, VI Region (September 17). In sum, at September
30, 2002, 5 new Lider hypermarkets and one Ekono supermarket have been opened
in Regions, and 6 Ekono supermarkets have been transformed into Lider Vecino
hypermarkets in Santiago. Additionally, as of the date of this report, a new
Lider Vecino has been opened in the city of Los Angeles, VIII Region (October
25), with 3,643 sq.m. of sales area.

CAPEX
As of September 30 of the current year, in accordance with the expansion
program approved by the Board, the Company has made investments in the amount
of US$72.0 million. The company expects to complete the expansion program for
2002 within the US$100 million budget agreed upon by the Board.

Priorities
Even though our priorities continue to be increasing our national coverage,
grow in our core business and promote further development in our
non-traditional business areas, thus increasing our share in family spending
(share of wallet); our daily operations are mainly focused in improving
efficiency standards within the Company for higher profitability and returns
of our businesses.

III. Income Statement Third Quarter 2002

Net revenues for the third quarter 2002 totaled US$329.7 million, representing a
6.3% increase compared to the same period of 2001. This increase is attributed
to a 5.6% total sales increase entirely contributed by new stores, along with an
11.7% increase in other revenues. Same store sales, on the other hand, dropped
by 4.0% in the quarter in comparison with the same period the former year. This
drop is due to the sustained economic contraction and persistently low
consumption levels resulting from high unemployment rates, in addition to a
negative calendar effect given by the calendar position of the National Holidays
as explained before, and the fact that the first weekend of September included
one day only.

(Exchange rate US$ =Ch$ 748.73)

Gross income reached US$78.7 million, equivalent to a 23.9% of net revenues,
representing a 10.3% increase compared to the same period of 2001.

Recurring operating expenses amounted to US$50.8 million, equivalent to 15.4%
of net revenues, representing a 23.2% increase over the third quarter the
former year. This increase is attributable to higher marketing and selling
expenses mainly from the new stores, which are not offset by their level of
revenues.

Start-up expenses totaled US$0.7 million, equivalent to a 0.2% of net
revenues, resulting from our expansion program which included two new store
openings during the quarter: one Ekono supermarket and one Lider hypermarket
(Ekono Miraflores and Lider Rancagua).

Consequently, total operating expenses amounted to US$51.6 million, equivalent
to a 15.6% of net revenues, representing an 18.5% increase over the same
period in 2001.

EBITDA for the third quarter 2002 was US$27.1 million, which corresponds to an
8.2% of total revenues, representing a 2.5% decrease compared to the same
period in 2001.

Operating income decreased by 8.5% in the third quarter compared to the
previous year, due to higher recurring operating expenses, 23.2% higher than
in 2001, as explained above.

Non-operating income (loss) amounted to US$0.3 million loss, equivalent to a
0.1% of net revenues, presenting a 119.2% loss increase compared to the former
year. Even though during the third quarter 2002 a strong monetary correction
was recorded as a result of the gain from currency exchange difference (which
is originated in the US dollars account receivable from Disco S.A.), this gain
was 27.9% lower than the amount recorded during the third quarter 2001, which
together with an 8.0% increase in financial expenses, results in a 119.2%
lower non-operating income compared to the same period of 2001, when it
amounted to US$1.5 million.

Net income for the third quarter 2002 is the amount of US$13.2 million,
corresponding to a 4.0% of net revenues, which represents a 15.5% decrease
compared to the same period in the year 2001.

Income Statement Period January-September 2002
During period January-September of the current year, total sales amounted to
US$873.6 million (corresponding to an 88.6% of total revenues), which
represents an 11.6% increase over the former year, while same stores sales
present a 0.5% increase over the year 2001. This scarce same store sales
growth is entirely contributed by the good performance of 6.6% same store
sales growth during the first quarter, which recorded lower unemployment rates
than the third quarter (8.8% for the period January-March, compared to 9.7% for
the period July-September 2002).

to the same period in 2001.

Gross income totaled US$229.4, corresponding to a 23.3% of net revenues, and
representing a 16.7% increase over the same period of 2001 when it totaled
US$196.6 million and represented a 22.6% of net revenues. This improvement is
due to the higher commercial margin, increased commercial activity with
suppliers and higher logistic revenues.

Recurring operating expenses (SG&A excluding depreciation and amortization)
amounted to US$146.3 million or 14.8% of total revenues, presenting a 26.0%
increase over the period January-September of the former year. This increase
is explained by the opening of new stores.

Start-up expenses totaled US$5.8 million, equivalent to a 0.6% of net
revenues, a 92.0% higher than during the former year. This increase results
from the expansion program undertaken by the Company, which considered the
opening of five new Lider hypermarkets (Concepcion II, Puerto Montt, Calama,
Valdivia and Rancagua), and the conversion of six Ekono supermarkets into the
Lider Vecino format in the period January-September 2002.

period of 2001), totaling US$77.3 million, which represents a 7.8% of total
revenues.

4.5% of total revenues.

0.7% of net revenues) which represents a 448.6% of loss increase compared to
the same period of 2001 when this figure was US$1.2 million of loss, or 0.1%
of net revenues. This result is explained mainly by a 33.7% gain reduction
from currency exchange differences in addition to a 6.4% increase in financial
expenses compared to results for the period January-September 2001.

The income statement for the period January-September 2002 shows net income of
US$31.9 million, corresponding to a 3.2% of net revenues, representing a 16.7%
decrease when compared to results for the same period in 2001.

IV. Sales and Other Indicators

IV.1. Sales

IV.1.A. Total Sales and Same Store Sales

Second Quarter 2002
During the third quarter of 2002 there was a 5.7% increase in total sales
compared to the same period of 2001. Same store sales, on the other hand,
decreased by 4.0% compared to the third quarter 2001, explained by the 6.3%
decrease in sales per transaction, which is partially offset by the 2.4%
increase in the number of transactions. Thus, the increase in total sales is
given by new stores opened during the first half of 2002, while same store
sales figures show the adverse effects of a complex economic environment
characterized by low consumption levels and high unemployment, with further
deterioration due to the unfavourable composition of the month of September.

Period January-September 2002
During the period January-September 2002, total sales increased by 11.7%, and
same stores sales recorded a 0.5% increase compared to the same period in
2001. As previously stated, the total sales increase is mainly due to the
opening of new stores, and the 0.5% same store sales increase for period
January-September reflects the persistent stagnation in domestic consumption.

IV.1.B Total Sales By Format

Third Quarter 2002
Total sales amounted to Ch$179,927 million (US$240.3 million) in the
hypermarket division, showing a 21.3% increase compared to the same period of
2001. Thus, the hypermarket division represents an 82.0% of total Company
sales compared to a 71.4% in the same quarter of 2002. This increase is
explained by the conversion of Ekono supermarkets into Lider Vecino
hypermarkets (6 conversions during the current year and 11 stores in total to
date), and by the new store openings in the Lider hypermarket format. The
preponderant weight of the hypermarket format is consistent with the Company
strategy of satisfying most of our customers' needs under one roof (one-stop
shopping) at the lowest market prices.

Total sales of the supermarket division amounted to Ch$39,442 million (US$52.7
million), 33.2% lower than in the former year, representing an 18.0% of total
Company sales. This decrease is explained by the successive transformations of
Ekono supermarkets into the Lider Vecino hypermarket format, as described
above.

is mainly contributed by the new Lider Vecino stores, which are not included
in the supermarket format nor in the hypermarket format but add to the number

IV.3. Sales per Transaction

IV.3.A. Total Sales per Transaction

Third Quarter 2002
The average sales per transaction during the third quarter 2002 decreased by
5.0% and 17.3% in the supermarket and hypermarket divisions, respectively. In
addition to sustained economic slowdown with low consumption levels, the
decrease in sales per transaction in the hypermarket division is explained by
the incorporation of new Lider Vecino stores-with lower sales per transaction
than Lider stores. On a consolidated basis, average sales per transaction
presents a 6.9% decrease compared to the same period of 2001.

when D&S accounted for 28.8% of the supermarket industry.

The hypermarket formats (Lider, Lider Mercado and Lider Vecino) increased its
market share in the country from 20.9% in the period July-August 2001 to a
24.3% of the market in the same period 2002. The supermarket formats (Ekono
and Almac) decreased its country market share from 8.5% in the period

D&S and Industry Market Share by Format

Within the Company, the hypermarket format has increased its share of total
D&S sales from 71.4% in the third quarter 2001 to 82.0% in 2002. This
increase results from the conversion of Ekono supermarkets into Lider Vecino
hypermarkets and the new store openings, most of them (5 of 6) under the Lider
format.

Period July-August 2002
During the period July-August 2002, the hypermarket format continues to show
market share increases in the Chilean industry, reaching a 36.1% compared to a
30.5% recorded in the same period the former year. Meanwhile, the supermarket
format shows a decrease in market share, from 69.5% in the period July-August
2001, to a 63.9% in the same period of the current year.

Period January-August 2002
As of August 30, 2002 the hypermarket format accounts for a 35.1% of the
industry sales, and supermarkets represent a 64.9% of the total. The
comparison with market share figures of the same period the former year (29.8%
for hypermarkets and 70.2% for supermarkets) shows sustained growth of the
hypermarket format in our country.

V.9. Third Quarter 2002:
     Economic Environment and Future Prospects

After the pronounced slowdown of economic growth experienced during the period
1998-2001, Chile has faced difficulties in resuming the former high growth
rates. A series of factors explain this slowdown as well as the difficulties
for an economic rebound.

Among the causes for the economic slowdown we can highlight the following:

     1)   the slowdown in world economy and the regional crises due to their
          negative impact on the prices of our exports, on capital flows into
          our country, on the profits of companies (especially those which
          have made investment in or aimed their exports to Argentina and
          Brazil), and on the volatility of the currency exchange and equity
          markets.

     2)   The deterioration in the framework of domestic policies resulting
          from the labor reform, the heightened uncertainty regarding tax
          policies, and the slow speed in solving regulatory constraints
          affecting investment in some key economic sectors (fishing, power
          supply, communications); and

     3)   The maturation process which developed after the initial impact of
          structural reforms introduced in the period 1975-1996.

With regards to economic growth during the current year, after this reached an
annualized rate of only 0.5% in the first quarter, this rose to a 3.0% in the
second quarter. Regarding the most recent months, after the low growth rates
shown in the months of June and July, economic growth experienced a rebound in
August and September. In terms of domestic expenditure (private and public
consumption plus investment), after the negative growth rates shown throughout
the four quarters of the former year, the current year presented an upturn in
domestic expenditure, which rose to a 3.8% annualized growth rate - seasonally
adjusted - in the first quarter and to 3.9% rate in the second quarter.
Notwithstanding the onset of a recovery in domestic consumption, negative
growth rates still linger in four consecutive quarters: -2.7% in the first
quarter and -0.4% in the second.

Given the recent developments, growth rates for the economy in the current
year are likely to be in the order of 2.0%, and inflation rates should be
closer to 3.0%.

As a result of this poor macroeconomic picture, retail sales and supermarket
sales continue to present reduced dynamism.

If we look towards the coming year, with the progressive slowdown of the world
economy - especially in the United States, Europe and Japan, in addition to
the fact that Brazil is undergoing a difficult situation which will only start
to clear out by the first half of 2003, economic prospects appear to present
no improvement. At the current moment, more than ever before, the country
needs a national consensus for the achievement of growth. This consensus
should be aimed at reducing uncertainties and internal constraints which
increase the costs of investment and labor occupation, which in turn leads to
a deterioration in expectations of entrepreneurs and consumers. Looking to the
future, the eventual recovery of the world economy, a better access to
international markets and progress made in terms of reforms intended to boost
economic growth will be the main factor that will enable us to resume high
growth rates. Nevertheless, economic growth for the year 2003 will remain at
low levels, with an average estimate of 3.4% albeit presenting important
risks, most of which would downgrade this estimate.
