Savills Vietnam Co forecasts that in the coming two-years, retail space in Hanoi would increase by 1.2 million square metres, three times higher than now and HCM City would have additional 740,000 square metres in the next three-years.
At present, Hanoi has 10 trade centres and shopping malls, 81 supermarkets and electronic supermarkets, two wholesale centres, and so on, providing the total area of 372,602 square metres of retail space.
In Q4 of 2009, there are two additional supermarkets and electronic supermarkets to be opened, increasing the total retail space by 15,000 square metres.
However, Luxury Mall has changed the total retail area into offices for lease, causing a reduction of 5,000 square metres in retail space supplies.
