The Gioi Di Dong Investment Joint Stock Company is planning to open more mobile device shops at supermarkets and shopping malls this year as part of its new business model “Shop in Shop.”
The company inaugurated its first Thegioididong.com shop of its kind at Big C Supermarket in Dong Nai province last week. This 100-square- meter facility posted daily revenue of around VND91 million (US$ 4,260) in the first days.
The company expected the revenue will increase to VND500 million per day on weekends. The target consumers at this store are low- and average-income customers.
Earlier, the company failed to apply the business model due to the limited area it could find at supermarkets, and inconvenient payment and delivery.
The “Shop in Shop” model is forecast to develop well in the upcoming time but retailers will face fierce competition for their expansion plans in the electronics and mobile phone areas.
