On August 7, Mrs. Lingthong Saengtawan, Deputy Governor of Savannakhet Province, presided over the official opening ceremony of the 7-Eleven PTTLAO XENO branch, which is the first branch located at a petrol station, that is, PTT Charoenxay 2 Station, Ban Xay Udom, Uthumphon District, Savannakhet Province, and the 7th branch in Lao PDR.
7-Eleven PTTLAO XENO branch is managed by a business partner, 7-Eleven Laos, which is in line with the policy of CP ALL Laos Co., Ltd. under CP ALL Group, to provide opportunities and knowledge in modern retail business management to create value and benefits for Lao PDR according to the 3-Benefit Principle of the Charoen Pokphand Group.
The strength of this area is that it is one of the main transportation routes for both businessmen and tourists connecting to Vietnam and down to the economic center in Champasak Province, southern Laos. Opening the store at the gas station will make the station a one-stop service point that provides convenience for both people and vehicles, creating excitement in the area and bringing benefits to the surrounding communities, especially promoting the tourism sector during Visit Laos Year 2024 according to the government policy.
Mr. Ody Sensone, a 7-eleven business partner and the manager of its PTTLAO XENO branch, said that 7-eleven is a popular convenience store worldwide. Tourists who have used its service in Thailand are impressed by the quality of the products and services. CP ALL opened its 7-Eleven store in Lao PDR, it was well received by customers and gained trust. At the same time, it received support from CP ALL Laos in passing on its technological knowledge, like PTT Laos, to make this operation successful and we believe that it will be a good image of Lao PDR in promoting economic strength in the future.
