RETAILING IN VIETNAM
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Slower Value Growth Due To Lower Consumer Price Index
Vietnam is witnessing many dramatic gas price drops in 2015 resulting in an impressively low
inflation rate and consumer price index. As a result, many products are witnessing noticeable
unit price plunges that mainly factor to slow down retailing’s performance in value terms. In
general, most channels are continuing to see another year of lucrative performances in 2015
due to good market demand and major players’ great efforts in expanding distribution coverage
and investing in costly yet effective marketing campaigns.
Aggressive Penetration From New Entrants Create An Increasingly Competitive Environment
Retailing in 2015 is witnessing strong entries from both international and domestic players,
creating dynamic competition. While many new entrants are emerging, several other perennial
players are being acquired due to their inability to compete. In terms of pricing competition, most
major retailers are trying to offer the most competitive discounts to attract customers and thus
increase sales.
Grocery and Non-grocery Split Remains Stagnant in Comparison With 2014
In 2015, the grocery and non-grocery split is experiencing stagnation in comparison with
2014. Because groceries are deemed essential, grocery retailers continue to contribute more to
retailing’s overall sales performance compared to non-store channels. Nevertheless, both
categories are experiencing a stronger presence of modern stores.
Saigon Union of Trading Cooperatives Continues To Lead Retailing in 2015
Saigon Union of Trading Cooperatives continues to launch new supermarkets not only in big
cities but also in rural areas such as Sa Dec, Thot Not and Ben Luc. Meanwhile, the company
has also launched the new mobile app facilitating a reward point-tracking feature and informing
users about the latest promotions and discounts at all Co.opMart supermarkets around Vietnam.
Slower Forecast Value Growth Due To Predicted Price Drops
Over the forecast period, retailing is expected to witness a decelerating trend. The stronger
presence of imported products as a result of the government’s exemption of import tax for
various categories is expected to create intense pricing competition over the forecast period,
resulting in falling average unit prices of many products. Additionally, emerging channels such
as internet retailing and convenience stores are expected to slow down to more stable growth
after rapid development over the review period. As a result, value growth is expected to record a
slower rate compared to the review period.
KEY TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS

Positive Economic Signs of Recovery Support Consumer Demands
According to the World Bank, Vietnam’s GDP of the first half of 2015 reached 6%, illustrating
the highest GDP growth rate since 2009. The impressive recovery is largely due to the strong
growth of manufacturing and construction at a rate of 9% in 2015. In terms of average income,
the country has also witnessed a strong average salary rise from VND3.8 million/month in 2014
to VND4.5 million/month in 2015, representing a growth rate of over 18%, mainly due to the new
rule published on 11 November 2014 regulating the minimum salary in 2015. Supported by a
relatively healthy economic climate and increasing average salary, overall retailing has recorded
good current value growth of 9% in 2015.
Nevertheless, in comparison with the growth rate of 14% in 2014, retailing’s performance in
2015 is experiencing a declining trend. The significantly low inflation rate in 2015 mainly factors
to slow down retailing’s performance. According to the World Bank, it was predicted that the
inflation rate for 2015 would be around 2.5%. In comparison with 4.1% in 2014 and 6.6% in
2013, this is a remarkable recovery. By 3 December 2015, gas prices have dropped 11 times,
which is the main factor restraining CPI and inflation growth at slow rates. As a result, retailing’s
overall performance is decelerating in terms of value due to the plunging inflation growth rate
rather than decreasing market demand.
According to Foreign Investment Association, FDI of the first 10 months of 2015 grew by 14%
against that of the previous year. Due to the government’s new legislation allowing foreigners to
have full ownership over their own businesses without having to co-operate with any local
companies, international players are making considerable increases their investments in
Vietnam. On 19 January 2015, NTAssian Discovery Fund increased its number of shares to 6.2
million to hold a less than 6% share of Mobile World JSC. Meanwhile, Vietsin Commercial
Complex Development JSC (VCCD) also launched its first SC Vivo City shopping centre in
District 7, Ho Chi Minh City. As a result of strong foreign investment, retailing is witnessing
rapid distribution expansion activities. Modern grocery retailers recorded a spectacular outlet
growth rate of 28% in 2015, presenting a sharp increase against the 14% recorded in 2014.
Outlook
According to the World Bank, Vietnam’s GDP is predicted to achieve a growth rate of around
6.6% in 2016, which promises a bright economic climate over the forecast period. By the end of
the forecast period, retailing is expected to reach VND2,410 trillion with a value CAGR of 5% at
constant 2015 prices.
In comparison with the review period’s value CAGR of 7% at constant 2015 prices, the
prospective performance of the market is predicted to decelerate. As a result of fierce
competition caused by new entrants’ aggressive entries in 2015, major retailers are expected to
concentrate on competitive pricing strategies to compete against newcomers over the forecast
period. Consequently, lower predicted product prices are expected to mainly contribute to slow
down retailing’s value growth over the forecast period.
With increasing forecast GDP, the average salary is also estimated to increase over the
forecast period, allowing more consumers to shift to modern grocery channels such as
convenience stores, supermarkets and mixed retailers. As such, modern grocery retailers is
expected to record a value CAGR of 9% at constant 2015 prices. Meanwhile, as more
consumers are expected to move away from conventional channels, traditional grocery retailers
is predicted to witness a value CAGR of 4% at constant 2015 prices.

Aggressive New Entries Create An Increasingly Competitive Environment
Vietnam is becoming a free trading playground in 2015 with significant changes supporting
international players investing in the country. The government has eliminated laws restricting the
number of outlets/shares a typical foreign company can own, which is leading to huge foreign
investment pouring into the country.
As a result, 2015 is witnessing a significant emergence of new players. Aeon Vietnam Co Ltd
is among the most noticeable examples. After the first year since its initial mall was launched in
Tan Phu, Ho Chi Minh City, the Japanese retailing company opened its third mall in Ha Noi in
2015. The new entrant’s operations in Vietnam are so successful that it has become the leading
mixed retailer in the country after only two years after its entry into Vietnam. Meanwhile, the
leading electronics and appliance specialist retailer in Vietnam, Mobile World JSC has received
enormous investment from international financial corporations such as Mekong Enterprise Fund
II and NTAssian Discovery Fund, reinforcing its capital resource to help expand its distribution
coverage from 352 outlets in 2014 to 506 in 2015.
Import tax exemptions for products from certain countries as part of the Trans Pacific
Partnership Agreement is leading to an increasing presence of imported products, placing
serious pressure on domestic players. Despite the ever increasingly competitive trading
environment, Vingroup has aggressively penetrated retailing with potentially around 110
convenient stores, 16 supermarkets and 40 electronics and appliance stores by the end of 2015.
On the other hand, some perennial players are deciding to withdraw from the retailing landscape
as they have predicted an inability to compete with new giant entrants. In March 2015, Central
Group acquired a 49% share of Nguyen Kim Trading JSC, while Lotte Shopping Co bought a
70% share of Diamond Plaza.
Outlook
Over the forecast period, these new giant entrants are predicted to continue imposing a
significant impact on the competitive landscape of retailing. Armed with giant financial
resources, Mobile World JSC also plans to penetrate grocery retailing with an ambitious goal of
6,000 – 8,000 outlets by the end of 2020. If the company successfully implements its expansion
strategy, it will become a huge threat to other players operating in grocery retailers over the
forecast period. In relation to its enormous capital resource, it is feasible for Mobile World JSC
to potentially become one of the leading grocery retailers. In 2015, Mobile World JSC ranked
second in overall retailing with a 1% value share. After entering grocery retailers, the company
has good potential to become the biggest retailer in Vietnam over the forecast period.
In terms of suppliers, domestic manufacturers are expected to experience rising competition
from imported brands. In order to encourage consumers to support local products and survive
the prospective rivalry against international companies, Vietnamese manufacturers should focus
on capital mobilising activities to reinforce financial resources in order to invest in new product
development and viral marketing campaigns.
In the meantime, local players should also be cautious in their decisions about collaborating
with international corporations to prevent being acquired by these companies in the long term.
On the other hand, as consumers’ awareness of supporting the local economy is expected to
improve over the forecast period, many of them will begin prioritising domestic brands over
imported products as long as local manufacturers can offer higher quality products at more
competitive prices.

Online Marketplaces Emerge As the Most Dynamic Internet Retailing Channel
During the review period, internet retailing emerged with small independent Facebook stores
as the main channel. Initially, online marketplaces were available yet did not contribute
noticeable revenue to internet retailing. After fluctuating growth in the early stages of e-
commerce’s development, the channel witnessed a declining trend as consumers’ trust in online
shopping was damaged by poor quality products, false advertisements and scams. Not until
2014-2015 did the channel begin to pick up again largely due to the emergence of online
marketplaces such as Lazada, Sendo and Tiki. According to Vietnam E-Commerce and
Information Technology Agency, by the end of 2014, Vietnam had 283 online marketplaces
officially registered to the government, a dramatic increase compared to 90 websites in 2013.
In terms of the leading players, Lazada is considered to be the most successful online
marketplace. Carefully examining disadvantages of pioneering players namely Chodientu and
5giay, the company adheres to three commitments: competitive prices, no commission fee
charges for storeowners and strictly no counterfeits, which mainly account for its remarkable
achievement. In addition, Lazada also invests heavily in television commercials and Facebook
advertisements to help strengthen brand awareness.
In response to Lazada’s outstanding performance, Vingroup – the most noticeable new
entrant in 2015, has established a subsidiary named VinEcom with a huge charter capital of
over VND1 trillion. On 15 August 2015, VinEcom launched its first online marketplace Adayroi,
offering various product types that are not commonly found at online stores such as
automobiles, motorbikes and fresh food.
In the meantime, perennial players namely Tiki and Sendo, are concentrating on capital
mobilising activity to reinforce their financial resources to survive the fierce rivalry among
different marketplaces in Vietnam. While Sendo has decided to cooperate with three Japanese
companies in SBI Holdings, Econtext ASIA, BEENOS; Tiki is collaborating with two other
Japanese funding groups, namely Sumitomo and CyberAgent Ventures.
Outlook
With such a huge number of new entrants penetrating retailing in 2015, the predicted
competitive landscape of online marketplaces is predicted to inevitably experience fierce
competition. Giant players, namely Lazada, Adayroi, Sendo and Tiki are expected to invest
heavily in online advertising campaigns to seize the lucrative share of this channel.
On the other hand, smaller players are expected to own superior unique selling points such as
marketplaces specialised for niche categories in order to survive the prospective competitive
environment. Without adequate budgets for marketing to build up brand awareness, these
inferior players will need to offer specific value to consumers that can fill the gap that giant
competitors are leaving. Failing to do this, these companies might face bankruptcy over the
forecast period due to their inability to compete against leading players.
Most online consumers will become wiser and more fastidious when making their buying
decisions. Tech-savvy consumers tend to carefully research different brands and prices before
purchasing products online. This could lead to strong pricing competition among different
marketplace operators over the forecast period. In response to the upcoming trend, major
players are predicted to improve customer services such as flexible exchange or returns policies
and complimentary shipping. In general, consumers are expected to benefit from the predicted
trend, while operators are predicted to engage in furious competition over the forecast period.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
R E T A I L I N G I N V I E T N A M P a s s p o r t 5
© E u r o m o n i t o r I n t e r n a t i o n a l
Informal Retailing
Vietnam’s informal retailing is mostly inclusive of street vendors and C2C (customer-to-
customer) online merchants. As these trading activities are not registered with the
government, there are no official statistics or data presenting actual sales. It is common to see
street hawkers selling various items ranging from grocery to non-grocery items such as fruit,
tissues, chewing gum and books. Spontaneous wet markets around industrial zones are also
a popular informal retailing channel in Vietnam, where blue collar workers have little time and
limited budgets for daily grocery shopping. During the review period, social networks and
online marketplaces have been emerging strongly, reflecting the rapid growth of the internet.
As a result, C2C online trading is something of a popular trend as urban citizens seek to earn
extra income.
While street vendors can be seen as having reached maturity, C2C online trading continues
to flourish in 2015. As a country, Vietnam has one of the fastest growth rates of new
Facebook users in 2015, which is strongly linked to the C2C online trading evolution during
the review period. With no tax and costly store rental fees, many people are daring to start up
small businesses in the online marketplace and social network channel.
As a result of increasing food safety awareness, more consumers are shifting to other more
trustworthy mainstream channels such as supermarkets and convenience stores. This,
however, is contributing to a shift away from street vendors of grocery products. On the other
hand, the increasing popularity of online C2C fashion stores spurred the growth of informal
retailing at the expense of apparel sales through mainstream channels, especially during the
first half of the review period. Nevertheless, in 2015 with the notable penetration of new
entrants such as Sense City and SC Vivo City, store-based apparel and footwear sales are
greatly improving as consumers with increasing disposable incomes become more exposed
to various new fashion brands.
Street hawkers are present across the country in public spaces in urban centres, industrial
zones, suburbs and even in more rural locations. Meanwhile, online C2C trading resides
mostly on Facebook and many marketplaces such as www.5giay.vn and chodientu.vn.
Online C2C trading mostly attracts urban consumers who are more knowledgeable about the
internet, while street merchants target the lower-income segment, especially blue collar
workers living near industrial zones.
In spite of the fact that street vending is not legal in Vietnam, it is very common to see many
spontaneous street-side wet markets and street hawkers across the country. Online C2C
stores, on the other hand, are generally considered legal because there is no official law
regulating C2C online trading activities in Vietnam in 2015. However, the Ministry of Industry
and Trade has announced that a new tax would be imposed on online C2C trading, including
Facebook stores and all other online marketplace stores. Although the practical means of
controlling this trading, as well as tax collection, has yet to be clarified.
Opening Hours
Due to the generally busier lifestyles of urban consumers in comparison with those from the
countryside, store-opening hours in big cities are generally later, at 09.00-22.00hrs, while
many stores in rural areas tend to close at 17.00-18.00hrs. In addition, the presence of 24/7
convenience stores is significantly more prominent in big cities, as these outlets target the
increasingly busy urban “night owl” consumers.
There are no restrictions on the number of days a store can open each year. Most retail
outlets open on Sundays so that retailers can attract more consumers. The number of hours
that stores can open on Sundays is not restricted by law.
R E T A I L I N G I N V I E T N A M P a s s p o r t 6
© E u r o m o n i t o r I n t e r n a t i o n a l
Despite the fact that there are no known restrictions on 24hr opening in Vietnam, 24/7
operations remain limited to convenience stores. Due to the necessary high level of human
resources and associated costs, as well as the low number of consumers out late at night,
supermarkets and shopping centres in Vietnam do not open 24/7. However, during busy
seasons, such as before the Lunar New Year holiday, major supermarket operators, such as
Saigon Union of Trading Cooperatives, tend to open on a 24-hour basis in order to fully
exploit the season of strongest purchasing power in Vietnam.

Physical Retail Landscape
Regarding heavy traffic in big cities, most consumers typically tend to frequent nearby stores
for daily grocery shopping. On the other hand, occasionally at the weekends, many
consumers are willing to travel longer distances to suburban areas to socialise with friends
and families at giant one-stop shopping centres.
High rent is the most common factor making physical space difficult to obtain for most
retailers. With strong financial resources, big corporations often choose the best and most
expensive locations. Meanwhile, small storeowners are utilising old apartments in central
R E T A I L I N G I N V I E T N A M P a s s p o r t 8
© E u r o m o n i t o r I n t e r n a t i o n a l
areas to open new shops in order to save on rental costs. In addition, because of the high rent
in Vietnam, major players such as Mobile World JSC and FPT Corp are shifting to smaller-
sized stores located on main streets to reduce operation costs.
Because Vietnam is a tropical country with extremely high temperatures almost all year round,
most shopping centres are located indoors and equipped with air conditioners to create a
comfortable shopping environment for consumers. The majority of shopping centres in
Vietnam are consolidated properties combining different standalone stores with food courts,
gaming areas and cinemas. Even though these are not the primary shopping destinations for
Vietnamese people, many consumers visit them to socialise with their friends and browse the
stores.
Standalone stores are prevalent in Vietnam partially due to the consumer habit of commuting
by motorbike. Standalone stores conveniently located on main streets make it easy for
consumers to stop by at anytime without having to park their vehicles and walk a decent
distance to the stores.
The travel infrastructure is dominated by private motorbikes and cars rather than public
transportation. Most consumers tend to stop by some stores on the way back home from work
or school, which is turning parking into one of the most important factors affecting sales during
rush hour. A spacious modern garage with the ability to facilitate a large numbers of
motorbikes arriving at the same time will create an enhanced shopping experience for most
customers.
Luxury retailers are located at the best and most expensive locations in city centres in order to
directly target the upper-middle to higher-income segment. Most supermarkets and
hypermarkets are also located in major cities, but at less expensive locations as they seek to
reduce rental costs. Meanwhile, convenience stores are usually located near schools and
public buildings such as hospitals and apartments.
Cash and Carry
Cash and carry is a relatively nascent and consolidated market in Vietnam, with Metro Cash
and Carry as the sole player.
The target consumer segment for cash and carry is companies, restaurants and hotels, as
well as wholesale consumers. In order to shop at Metro, customers must be able to present a
membership card that can only be issued to business owners. There is a trend for people to
borrow membership cards from friends or relatives to ensure a smooth entrance. However,
this group remains the minority and does not contribute significant revenue to Metro.
During the review period, Metro witnessed aggressive competition from major supermarket
and hypermarket operators that introduced low-pricing strategies in a bid to gain share from
the sole cash and carry player in Vietnam. Consequently, some small retailers and companies
are gradually switching from cash and carry to supermarkets and hypermarkets, swayed by
the latter channels’ offer of attractive promotions and their close proximity to residential areas.
With Berli Jacker Public Co Ltd as the new owner of Metro Cash and Carry chain, the market
is witnessing a stronger presence of imported Thai products. Because Berli Jacker Public Co
Ltd originated from Thailand, the company has a potential advantage in terms of connections
with Thai manufacturers to obtain the most competitive prices. Additionally, due to the new
import tax exemption legislation bolstered by the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement,
products from Thailand can benefit from 0% import tax.

Payments and Delivery
Vietnam remains a cash society in 2015.
High financial card maintenance costs are the main deterring feature preventing card
payments from becoming the mainstream payment method in Vietnam. Additionally, many
retailers do not want to invest in POS machines, as they do not want to be charged by banks
for every trading transaction made in their stores. Even though many banks provide retailers
with free POS devices, some sellers intentionally deceive consumers and state that their
devices are broken to avoid card payments as often as possible.
Mobile payments are becoming increasingly popular among young tech-savvy consumers as
many big retailers offer special discounts for products purchased via mobile phones. lazada

from Recess Retail & Delivery Co Ltd is among the most avant-garde and successful retailers
deploying the mobile shopping method. In 2015, the company launched some attractive
promotions such as special discounts for the first transaction made via the lazada mobile app
and special price offers exclusively applicable for in-app purchases.
Generally, consumers do not have much trust in shipping fragile products with cargo delivery
services in Vietnam due to the lack of responsibility from these service providers. However,
the situation is improving in 2015 with major online retailers focusing on addressing this
particular problem, which has a direct negative impact on internet retailing. As a result, these
players are gaining trust from more consumers, contributing to their remarkable performances
in 2015. In general, most products are delivered to consumers’ doors intact. If customers are
not happy with the product quality, they can return the goods to the retailers within a specific
number of days from the purchase date.
Cash On Delivery (COD) is the main payment method for in-app purchases despite many
consumers’ growing interest in card payment due to its convenience. In general, most
consumers feel safer when they pay upon delivery. By doing so, consumers can make sure
that the ordered products actually meet their expectations.
By the end of the forecast period, COD is expected to remain the most popular payment
method for in-app purchases. As with other channels, cash will retain its prevalence. Unless
banks can lower financial card maintenance fees while increasing card security, non-cash
payment will continue being the inferior option.
Emerging Business Models
Online payment by instalments is becoming an increasingly popular business model in 2015.
Credit card owners from banks associated with online retailers can use their cards to make
online payments with instalment plan benefits without having to submit various financial proof
papers and wait for them to be verified by lending financial companies. Given the model’s
convenience and acceptable interest rates, more consumers are opting for this payment
method, making it the most noticeable business model in 2015.
Even though instalment plans have been available on the market for many years, they are
only just witnessing significant growth in 2015 when credit card owners gain instant access to
this payment method.
3G and the internet’s increasing affordability play an important role in stimulating this
emerging business model’s growth. In addition, smart phones’ unit price is also seeing a
dramatic price plunge as major players introduce many more cheap models in 2015, making
in-app purchases increasingly popular.
Traditional store-based channels seem to be direct competitors for this business model.
However, as they serve different needs from various groups of consumers, they are unlikely
to impose a noticeably negative impact on each other. While online payments by instalments
mainly serve credit card owners who shop online, the traditional payment method in full
amount and by instalment plans is suitable for non-credit card owners.
Digital channels obviously benefit from the business model’s emergence.
