Singapore grocery chain Shen Siong has revealed plans to open a third store in China, with a lease agreement for a store in the city of Kunming.
The parent company Sheng Siong Group has announced that its subsidiary Sheng Siong (China) Supermarket Co. has signed the lease agreement with Yunnan Yingjun Commercial Operation Management Co. at the beginning on the month.
This upcoming store will span 7,800sq ft and be set up at 1F Unit 101, Chun Cheng Hui Gu Phase 2 Commercial Building in the Haiyuan District. The store is part of the Heilinpu Wuhua District Residential Office. Plans are in place for the store to be operational by the end of the third quarter this year. The new Kunming store will bring the total store count of the group to 63 in Singapore and three in China.
Sheng Siong (China) Supermarket Co. was formed in 2014, as a result of a joint venture between Sheng Siong Group and Kunming LuChen Group and A-Smart Holdings.
Sheng Siong is now the third largest chain of supermarkets in Singapore after being founded by Lim Hock Chee in 1985.
