7- Eleven launches third branch in Vientiane on December 2023

(KPL) A well-known convenience store chain 7- Eleven today launched Dongdok branch, the third of its kind in the Lao PDR, at Dongdok Campus Market, Vientiane.

CP All Lao of CP All group opened the first 7 - Eleven in Laos September this year. The opening shows the country’s economic momentum of opening to new opportunities, said CP All Public Managing Director International Mr. Chairoj Tiwatmuncharoen.

The opening ceremony was attended by Deputy Minister of Education and Sports Kingmano Phommahasay, Vice Dean of National University of Laos Phosy Thipdavanh and relevant officials of both sides.

The newly opened 7 - Eleven branch will be managed by a local businesswoman. Having business operated by local people is CP All's policy as it wants 7- Eleven in Laos to be a Lao store, creating values for Lao society and a real pride of Lao people.

Ms. Lalinthip Meuangvong, a 26-years-old businesswoman, said that she is interested in this business because 7- Eleven is a modern and popular convenience store chain. “Lao people, especially those who have traveled to Thailand, are accustomed to using the service of 7-Eleven.”

The company has a professional team ready to give us an advice on all matters. With a modern store management system, I believe that we can succeed together, creating benefits and providing more choices with respect to accessing quality products and services, promoting the economy, creating jobs, incomes, as well as creating a good image for the country.

Mr. Chairoj Tiwatmuncharoen (L) and Ms. Lalinthip Meuangvong

“Ms. Lalinthip will inspire other Lao entrepreneurs to join our efforts, cherishing CP All’s three values that aim to benefit the host country, people and the corporate," said Mr. Chairoj Tiwatmuncharoen.

Across Asia and the Pacific, fertility rates are falling. Headlines warn of “population collapse,” and young people are often blamed – accused of turning away from parenthood. But the real crisis is not “too many” or “too few” births. It’s about whether young people can choose when and how to start or grow a family, on their own terms. For too many young people who ask the question: Can I build the life I want? The answer is no.
