Story 12 - News

SAIGON UNION OF TRADING COOPERATIVE (or Saigon Co.op), Vietnam’s No.1 retailer based on the Retail Asia-Pacific Top500 rankings, is on track to open up to 100 stores in 2015 countrywide.

In response to a questionnaire sent by RETAIL ASIA, Tran Thi Kim Quyen, the group’s general manager of retail support division, said: “Although there is an economic slowdown in the region and the world, the [situation in] Vietnam is getting better, with efforts to control the inflation from the government now coming to effect.”

Vietnam is set to open up its retail market next year in line with its commitment to the World Trade Organisation.

With Vietnam being considered the most attractive market for retail investments globally, Tran expects competition in the industry to steepen.
