Vietnamese-made goods have already established a strong presence within Komeri’s supply chain and are highly regarded by Japanese consumers, said Mr. Sasage Yuichiro, Chairman and CEO of Komeri Group, during a recent working session with authorities of Ninh Binh province in northern Vietnam.

He noted that the group is particularly interested in partnering with Ninh Binh in two key product categories: agricultural supplies and equipment, and household goods. These sectors have consistently received positive feedback in the Japanese market, he added.

Leveraging its proven experience and successful business model, Komeri aims to study and implement its operations in Ninh Binh. This initiative is expected to open new avenues for cooperation, contributing to sustainable economic development and fostering long-term ties between the province and its Japanese partners.

According to Mr. Yuichiro, Komeri is currently one of Japan's leading retail groups, boasting a nationwide network of stores and supermarkets. Its system is organized into large, medium, and small-scale models, tailored to meet the diverse needs of local residents.

During the reception for Japanese firms on January 16, Chairman of the Ninh Binh People’s Committee, Mr, Tran Huy Tuan, highlighted that the province’s economic scale currently ranks among the top 10 largest localities in Vietnam.

Ninh Binh currently has approximately 12,000 ha of industrial land under operation. Furthermore, the province has planned additional industrial zones totaling up to 17,000 ha, providing significant capacity to accommodate large-scale, high-tech projects and modern production chains.

Alongside these advantages, Ninh Binh boasts an abundant human resource pool, training and supplying around 50,000 skilled workers annually. This workforce is well-equipped to meet the increasingly stringent requirements of international enterprises, particularly major corporations from Japan.
