NOI, VIETNAM -�Media OutReach�-
23 September 2019 -�Sales in Vi?t Nam's retail market have
constantly increased over the past 8 years. In 2018 alone, turnover reached
US$145 billion, an increase of 12 per cent compared to 2017. Vi?t Nam is
becoming one of the most exciting retail markets to invest in the region.
Vi?t Nam's market is 6th in
the global retail development index
In the past 10 years, Vi?t Nam has been assessed
by many research institutions as a strong, new economic market. This is an
important factor promoting the development of the retail real estate market in
Vi?t Nam. A.T. Kearney's report said that the retail supply is many times lower
than other countries in the region, but Vi?t Nam's market ranks 6th in the
world's retail development index.
H� N?i and HCM City are currently the two largest
markets in Vi?t Nam, and have the potential to be among the top 3 retail
markets in the Asia-Pacific region announced by CBRE.
Recently, the leading operator of the commercial
centre system in Vi?t Nam -- Vincom Retail -- has just launched three Vincom Mega
Mall shopping centres. The event not only attracted the attention of many
investors, but also contributed to the retail real estate market in Vi?t Nam
becoming "stirred up" and attracting the attention of many domestic
and international retail brands.
Vincom Mega Mall Ocean Park is located in
Vinhomes Ocean Park urban area -- one of the largest and most exciting real
estate projects in the northern region today because of a series of unique
utilities in Vi?t Nam such as a salt lake and sea in the heart of the capital;
100 picnic spots and six BBQ parks. With dozens of apartment blocks and
thousands of villas, it promises to attract nearly 1.5 million regular
customers and 4.5 million customers in H� N?i at the weekend for entertainment
at amusement parks.
In addition, Vincom Mega Mall itself is designed
to be creative, modern and different on an area of up to 56,000sq.m, arranged
based on technological elements and inspiring design ideas that promise to
bring about the most impressive shopping experience.
Vincom Mega Mall Ocean Park is
highly connected as it is located only 30 minutes from the city centre. This
duration can be shortened after a series of new bridges are opened.
Located in Vinhomes Smart City, Vincom Mega Mall
Smart City inherits a series of unique utilities such as "the leading
Japanese garden in the area", 8 utility parks with 14 park categories, and
especially a modern technology system of the smart city model is widely
deployed. These are the key factors that help brands attract young, dynamic,
modern and high-income customers -- the main customers of the urban area.
Vincom Mega Mall's smart operation and modern
green space is spread over an area of 68,000sq.m, bringing convenience and
creativity to the stores, promising to help brands to attract up to 1.8 million
potential customers right after it is launched.
Vincom Mega Mall Smart City is
located on Th?ng Long Boulevard, a new and dynamic development axis of the city.
Meanwhile, in the area of HCM City, Vincom Mega
Mall Grand Park (District 9) with an area of 48,000sq.m of commercial space,
including five floors and one basement, was assessed by experts as having the
opportunity to bring up to 1.5 million customers per year.
Vincom Mega Mall Grand Park also inherits all the
advantages from Vinhomes Grand Park urban area with convenient location and a
large source of target customers.

The trend of "personalisation"
towards different experiences
Commenting on the green design and smart
operation of the three Vincom Mega Mall projects, Richard Wood - Director of
Concept-I, the design unit of three big department stores, said that with the
desire to integrate and lead the new retail wave, Vincom aims to be a place for
shopping, enjoying art and artistic design to create a different experience
when shopping, as well as a co-creative space model for consumers.
The difference is evident in the design, when
Vincom Mega Mall Smart City is inspired by the digital wave - the future
technology trend; Vincom Mega Mall Grand Park comes from the idea of a space for
community; and Vinacom Mega Mall Ocean Park is inspired by the underground
flows and the blue coastline.
Not only offering diversity in customer
experiences, the differences in the design of the department stores also helps
modern customers shape and select themselves to build "their own
personality" in their own experience.
Studies of consumers' habits show that taking
advantage of the surrounding ecosystems to create individual characteristics is
an inevitable trend of the younger generation today. Vi?t Nam is a country with
a young population, so "green design", "smart operation"
and constantly breaking the limits of experience is a mandatory trend of
shopping centres to attract and retain customers.
In the recent "New Wave of Retail"
event, the announcement of unprecedented experiences such as combining natural
elements with lighting systems, enhancing interactive games, applying modern
technologies to bring convenience to customers, and simultaneously deploying a
series of programmes to link the community to protect the environment, partly
shows the pioneering position in creating new waves towards customer experience
of Vincom Retail.
Tr?n Thu Hi?n, Deputy Director of Sales &
Marketing, Vincom Retail, said that the four key factors that will ensure Vincom
Mega Mall's success are the appropriate product structure; abundant customer
base; the tenants' companionship and professional operation and the ability to
organise inspirational marketing events. "With the above factors, we believe
Vincom's Mega Mall is the leading product line and attracts customers to the
experience," Hi?n added.
