TANG FRERES Supermarket is a first largest supermarket in Lao
Congratulation for grand opening on 25 December 2004, It's very big event and become talk of the town there. And also have a plan to expand branch soon.
TANG Freres, a Parisian supermarket chain, is to launch the first international-style supermarket in Laos on Christmas Day at the International Trade Exhibition and Convention Centre (ITECC).
The 3,000 sq m emporium stock both domestic and imported goods. "The main feature of our supermarket will be the variety of goods from both Asia and Europe," said investor and Tang Freres family member, Peter Chan. "We hope this will prove attractive to Lao and foreign shoppers."
Tang Freres has been running supermarkets in Paris for over 20 years, and currently has a chain of ten in Paris and outlets in other countries. Tang Freres (or Chan Brothers) has trade partners in more than 60 countries, with a turnover of around US$1 billion. "With such experience, I am sure we will succeed here too," said Mr Chan.
The supermarket, which will open from 10am to 9pm, will have around 200 small counters. "It will carry over 10,000 items," said Mr Chan, with a food concourse and theaters. "Lao products will have priority in placement," he added, over goods from Thailand, Hong Kong, Korea, Vietnam, Japan and Europe
.
There are plans for other supermarkets in Vientiane, including one in the Lane Xang Square tourist complex at Don Chan, part of a Malaysian investment, still on the drawing board and due to open in 2006. Also planned is reconstruction of the Morning Market, due to start next year with Singaporean investment.
Mr Chan is currently operating various other businesses in Laos under the umbrella of the World Group Company. His main investments include ITECC, Dong Pasak Village and canned food factories.
"Laos has been growing quickly in recent years, and many foreign investors are coming to Laos, so it is a good time to invest here," he claimed.
Mr Chan is a Thai who grew up in Laos and started doing business when he was 12 years old. He has now over 50 years in business experience. "I hope to work for more many years, because I feel happy using my experience to run a successful business and helping others," he said. "Care and sincerity are the secrets of my success," he added.

I agree, lets take another look at this... it is good that theres progress, but at what cost... those little shops that are operated by other everyday Lao People can only get hurt if Tang's tries to take over the market... |

I don't care too much for mondern shopping mall. I still like Talat Sao. I'm not gonna go shop at these new malls anyhow. It's not gonna take business from small normal shop from local Lao people. I bet most of the items that will sell in these new mall will be too pricey for average kon Lao. Only the rich kon Lao will be able to shop there. And how many rich people in Laos out of 5.6 million people, I say very little.
