First outlet in Fuzhou, China

Now, the brand aims to replicate the same success in China by offering consumers a wide range of quality household products at competitive prices.

“This move is part of our ongoing commitment to expanding our mini-market network and providing consumers with quality daily necessities at affordable prices,” 99 Speedmart said.
