Addressing a workshop on December 15 in Mexico City, where local enterprises seek opportunities for investment and tourism promotion in Vietnam, the ambassador noted that bilateral trade exchange is likely to surpass 1.8 billion USD in 2014, but the figure is small compared with the total foreign trade values of 780 billion USD and 280 billion USD of Mexico and Vietnam, respectively. During the event, Mexican business representatives said a lack of knowledge and accurate information about Vietnam and its market and culture is a major obstacle for them in trade with Vietnam. They put many questions on Vietnam’s law and administrative procedures on investment and trade. Many expressed the wish to visit Vietnam to study the market. A photo exhibition was also held in the framework of the workshop to introduce to the Mexican friends about Vietnam, its people and culture in the process of international integration Source: Oananews Back to top FTA to create more rooms for Vietnam-Customs Union cooperation The signing of a free trade agreement (FTA) between Vietnam and the Customs Union of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan will be an effective tool for Vietnamese exporters to make inroads into the union boasting a population of over 170 million with high per capita income. Minister of Industry and Trade Vu Huy Hoang and Trade Minister of the Eurasian Economic Commission Andrei A.Slepnhev signed a joint statement on the conclusion of the Vietnam-Custom Union Free Trade Agreement (VCUFTA) on December 15 in the southern province of Kien Giang . Witnessing the event, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung said the signing and implementation of the agreement will be an important progress to enhance bilateral relations in economy, education-training, science-technology, and culture.

Many people are likely to go shopping in supermarkets rather than traditional markets due to its safety and service quality.

    Retail in Vietnam Navigating the digital retail landscape February 2019 Foreword 03 Drivers of growth 04 The new retail landscape 13 Deloitte’s retail survey 19 1. Purchasing channels 20 2. Digital behaviours 24 Looking ahead 27 Contact us 28 Retail in Vietnam | Navigating the digital retail landscape Foreword With the fastest-growing middle class in Southeast Asia, Vietnam has been experiencing phenomenal growth rates in its retail sector. This trend looks set to continue into the future, given its relatively young population demographics and robust consumer spending behaviours. Indeed, the rise of e-commerce and digital retail channels in Vietnam is one of the top trends to watch: by 2025, Vietnam’s e-commerce market size is expected to be second only to Indonesia in the Southeast Asia region. In this report, we explore the drivers of growth in Vietnam’s retail sector, and take a look at some of the defining features of its new retail landscape. In particular, we examine the rise of Modern Trade channels in Vietnam, including commercial centres, convenience stores, and digital platforms. Later, we also highlight some of the findings from Deloitte’s latest retail survey, which was conducted across nearly 700 households in the two metropolitan cities of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in late 2018. There are several key takeaways. Firstly, although Vietnam’s retail sector holds immense potential for growth, the level of competition is intense. Across different retail formats, such as commercial centres, convenience stores and electronics chain stores, we are witnessing domestic and foreign retail giants engaged in a battle for dominance as they embark on aggressive expansion strategies.

The theoretical part represents the common growth strategies in business management, which are Ansoff growth matrix, BCG matrix, and Mckinsey’s three horizons of growth and integrative growth strategies.

The empirical part includes case company analysis, the competition among main retailers and strategy suggestion for the case company. Throughout the study, different tools are applied including SWOT analysis and Porter’s five forces. Finally, the author suggests a suitable strategic model for the case company’s competition and recommends some necessary actions the company should take to gain more share in the Vietnamese market. Keywords - supermarket, retail market, Big C Vietnam, growth strategy. I. INTRODUCTION from their business: how much revenue they want to reach in a planned period of time, the level of 1.1.
