Manila Standard Today:
Finds Convenience Stores Inc., the fast-growing convenience store chain owned by the family of Sen. Manuel Villar, will aggressively compete in the industry with the opening of 150 outlets in the next two years.
Finds C-Stores chief operating officer Wilfredo Camarillo said the company planned to open 100 stores by next year, which will boost the company’s sales to the P1-billion mark.
Camarillo said the expansion program would propel the company as the first nationwide convenience store chain and among the top three in the country.
The store chain currently operates 25 company-owned Finds stores within the properties owned by Vista Land & Lifescapes Inc. Each site has an established critical mass base.
Camarillo said the company would expand the store chain through franchising.
