Central hub licences biggest commercial comple

The central province of Thua Thien-Hue on March granted license to the Espace Business Hue (Big C Hue) joint-stock company to invest in a 300 billion VND commercial centre, the biggest of its kind in Hue city.

The project is to cover almost 4,000 sq. m of land and rise to four storeys, including supermarkets and culinary and entertainment areas.

The company plans to sell goods mostly produced in Vietnam with top priority given to those products available in the province, said Big C Vietnam Chief Executive Officer Pascal Billaud.

Once put into operation in the next 99 days, the project, the ninth of the chain of the Big C supermarkets in Vietnam, is expected to provide jobs for some 500 local workhands.
