Ho Chi Minh City made a breakthrough in Foreign Direct

Investment (FDI) figure in 2013, reflecting efforts of the local

authorities in improving the city’s investment environment

and obtaining investor’s interests. According to the HCMC

Statistical office, FDI has recovered strongly to achieve

US$963.1 million from 440 approved projects in the last 12

months; in which a surge in both number and value of projects

from Japanese investors.

In 2013, HCMC, Vietnam’s economic and business hub,

witnessed the closure of 20,585 existing companies due to

economic crisis. But concurrently, 25,349 new businesses had

been established, an increase of 7% y-o-y that reflects resume

of balance in enterprise numbers . From January 2014, the

city encourages to register online for business operation in

order to enhance capacity and convenience of administrative

procedures.

Last year, the city inflation rate rose 1.13% y-o-y to reach 5.2%

although the local officials claimed it is still in control. In fact,

this rate is lower than that of many other cities and provinces

In December, the monthly average Grade A commercial

office asking rent remained stable at US$38.2 per sq m.

occupancy rates in this segment also increased slightly to

reach 91%, a rise of 0.8% m-o-m.

Similarly, last month indicated positive signs for landlords

in Grade B office buildings in HCMC with increase in both

average rents and absorb rate indicating effective leasing

strategies from landlords. Flexible offered rates and building

functional convertion provided good results in apparent

case studies.

Maersk accquired approximately 2,800 sq m. in Zen plaza

(District 1) where retail and F&B areas had just been

converted to office spaces and pico plaza also welcomed

prudential CFC as new tenants.

Financial services and auditing firms were major sources

of office leasing enquiries and deals while relocation was

OutlookGrade A office segment will continue as it ended the year with

increase in occupancy rate and stable rentals.

Limited supply of premium developments is a competitive

advantage for Grade A developers to gradually bring up the

rents. Likewise, occupancy rate of current buildings maintains

growing trend from relocation demands of financial firms.

The year ahead is time to adjust rental strategy of Grade B pro-

jects as well. Those with constant taken spaces are trying to fix

the rate to secure tenants while others keep struggling to fulfil

large vacant areas by flexible rents.

HCMC CBD MARKET REpoRT

JANUARY 2014 | RETAIL MARKET

Reported by the City Statistics office, in 2013 Ho Chi Minh City’s

total retail sales and service revenues reached VND606,978.9

billion, a gain of 12.6% y-o-y. The revenue growth, however, was

at the lowest rate in the last five years, which are 19%, 27.9%,

23.5%, and 17.3% in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012 respectively. The

slow pace of this year’s retail sales resulted from low domestic

demand as customers have curbed spending except for essential

goods and services.

Many enterprises in the retail sector postponed potential business

expansion plans because of major obstacles including capital

shortage, reducing high volume of inventory, and the increasing

cost of raw materials.

The HCMC’s statistical figures showed that CpI climb by 0.39%

against the previous month in December. Given an increase

in price of gas at the beginning of last month, the index of the

housing, electricity, fuel and construction materials group posted

the highest rise by 2.91% over November.

Retail Market Overview

Retail podiums and department stores located in CBD showed

the movement in average asking rents given high secured taken

areas. occupancy rate of retail podiums last month gained 2.5%

month-on-month to achieve 87.7%, mostly from new take-up

at New World Hotel and Bitexco Financial Tower. premium

department stores in city centre still enjoy high occupancy

figures.

In December, a slight drop of 2.5% in average rentals of CBD

shopping centers helped the landlords to stall vacancy rate at

25% and maintain tenants. Despite of moderate adjustment, it

showed efforts of the retail podium developers in softening rents

in order to prevent high turnover rate from tenants recently.

while other individual premium sites maintain high asking rents.

During last month, parkson inaugurated its 9th department store

in Vietnam at Cantavil premier project in District 2. The 18,000

sq m. retail spaces on 6 floors target customers in District 2

and the surrounding areas.

Lotte Cinema at Cantavil premier opened in the middle of

December while BigC supermarket will commence operations

early 2014.

Year End Sale off and promotion programs attracted significant

foot fall to retail malls last month. This trend is expected to

last till the end of January.

In general, without discount events, sales revenue of retail

segment has suffered a slump throughout the year. Domestic

demand for services and products remains low given uncertain

condition and unclear foresight of the economy.

Nevertheless, landlords of CBD retail developments keen on

holding high rental rates highlighting limited supply in coming

months.

There is a big gap between high asking rents and affordability

of tenants in the existing market. Although owners of shopping

malls within CBD make some adjustment in rental policy, they

need to show more good will to forestall turnover trend of

retail lessees and tenancy default.

on the New Year Day, Japanese retail developer Aeon opened

the first shopping mall, named Aeon Tan phu Celadon, in Tan

phu District, HCMC with a total floor space of 50,000 sq m.

The megamall came together with 23,000 sq m. of general

merchandise stores business section under the operation of

almost 2,000 staffs. one-third of the goods and products at

the mall are imported from Japan while another third are local

products. During this year, the market also expects a stream

of new shopping areas in suburban areas including Thao Dien

pearl and Saigon Airport plaza.

JANUARY 2014 | SERVICED APARTMENT MARKET

Serviced apartment projects in HCMC are dominated by

international management firms like The Ascott, IHG, Accor,

Norfolk, Frasers Hospitality and Sedona while the remains

have in-house management team. In fact, most of the

current self-managed buildings had been under international

operation before the developers decide to run by themselves

with established services and systems.

However, internationally-managed developments are still being

preferred with high-standard service and reputation reflecting

in stability in both rentals and occupancy rate. Hence, more

international management brands and internationally-managed

serviced apartments are expected to come online in future.

Outlook

Last month, Grade A serviced apartments experienced small decline in both rents and occupancy rate. Monthly average rate of Grade

A were down 0.86% m-o-m to US$34.2/ sq m. while occupancy rate decreased 0.6% from November. Meanwhile, Grade B average

rentals slightly gained 3% m-o-m to approach US$26.9/ sq m. per month and the occupancy rate almost stayed tune at 82.14%.

In 2013, monthly average rentals of Grade A serviced apartments is stable at US$34.2/ sq m. given permanent vacancy below 10%.

Serviced apartments are still competing against high-end buy-to-let apartments. Grade B rents fluctuates around US$25/sq m.
