Retail a potential market for franchising in Vietnam
Friday, August 23,2019AsemconnectVietnam - Vietnam’s retail market, one of the three most dynamic in Asia-Pacific, grows 12 percent annually, making it a new rich land for franchisers.
According to Yun Ju Young, managing director of GS25 Vietnam, the country has yet to have any retail franchise brands.
It is projected that convenience store franchises will be a new profitable business model in the coming time because costs are lower than in other sectors while management is easier.
Insiders said convenience store chain franchises from Japan, China’s Taiwan and other countries are eyeing the Vietnamese market. Following the trend, Vietnamese retailers have also stepped up their franchising efforts.
Saigon Co.op for instance is franchising its Co.op Food convenience store in HCM City and other cities and provinces, and targets the opening of 100 new stores this year.
Nguyen Phi Van, founder and chairwoman of Retail & Franchise Asia, said Vietnam is rated highly by the International Franchise Association as a franchise market.
However, she said 90 percent of franchisers in Vietnam follow the traditional model without applying digital technology, which is likely to result in losses and withdrawal from the market.
