GS25 opened its first franchise store owned by a local person in Vietnam, according to GS Retail on Sunday. The new store is located in an upscale apartment complex Masteri An Phu. South Korea’s largest convenience store chain operator entered the Vietnamese market in January 2018 and now runs 145 stores in the country, growing as one of the Southeast Asian country’s big three convenience store players along with Circle K and Family Mart, which had entered the market four to six years earlier than the Korean operator.
