HA NAM (Biz Hub)— To further expand in Viet Nam in the future, the Republic of Korea's Lotte retail group plans to develop Lotte Viet Nam into one of its leading branches abroad.

Visiting the country and exploring investment opportunities in the northern province of Ha Nam is part of the plan, said Director General of Lotte Centre Ha Noi Lee Jong Kook during his working session with local authorities on Thursday.

The company's representative praised the province's socio-economic progress in the past few years and its policies to attract foreign investments.

He also emphasised that the local transport system is an advantage, which will facilitate operations by overseas investors, including Lotte. He added that Lotte hoped to contribute to the area's development. — VNS
