Three MINOSO stores opening in Vietnam on the same day received great attention from the local government and a warm welcome from the local people. During business time, the Vietnamese rushed to buy at the stores with high passion. Three stores were crowded until midnight and had to extend their business hours to 2 a.m. The revenue of the Hang Ngang Streetstore exceeded USD10,000 within one hour. According to incomplete statistics, MINISO has made brilliant achievements on its first day in Vietnam, breaking the record for highest ever. MINISO is expected to open 300 stores in Vietnam within one year.
On the day of the opening ceremony, MINISO organized an extemporaneous press conference, since media reporters were curious about MINISO's operation philosophy and business models.
