Covering 7,000sq.m, the two-storey store will cost more than VND100 billion (US$4.38 million) and sell around 30,000 essential items, 90 per cent of them Vietnamese products.
Scheduled to open by the end of this year, the supermarket will be a distribution site for products with clear origin, assured quality and reasonable prices, said Nguyen Anh Duc, deputy director of Saigon Co.op.
Co.opmart Kon Tum will act as a conduit for the province’s specialties and other products to enter the Co.opmart chain, he said.
The new store is being built as part of an economic co-operation programme in the 2016-20 period between HCM City and Kon Tum Province. — VNS
