Vietnam’s Alluvia Chocolate opens its flagship store at Mekong Deltal’s My Tho cruise port
Alluvia Chocolate, a famous Vietnamese handmade chocolate brand, officially opened its flagship store at My Tho Cruise Port in the southern province of Dong Thap last Saturday.
According to Nguyen Ngoc Diep, founder of Alluvia Chocolate, the new store is not only a shopping destination, but also the first “bean-to-bar” chocolate experience space fully implemented by Alluvia in Vietnam.
Visitors can visually approach the handmade chocolate production process through the display area of specialized machinery and equipment; participate in a chocolate making workshop; explore more than 35 product lines with more than 100 product codes from cocoa and chocolate.
Diep said that the new store is a milestone marking 11 years of formation and development of this chocolate brand. Alluvia owns a chain of 21 stores stretching from Hanoi to Dong Thap and one store in Cambodia.
“Currently, 60% to 70% of Alluvia’s customers are foreign tourists. If Vietnam tourism is good, Alluvia’s business will be good and the peak sales will fall during the end-of-year and early-year holidays,” she noted.
Therefore, Alluvia mainly opens stores in cities with strong tourism and areas with a high concentration of international tourists. The company’s six stores in Ho Chi Minh City are all located in the city's central area.
