Acquisition and growth strategy for NEM, a popular striped brand for young people <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Japan's Stripe acquired NEM and took over NEM's women's fashion brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In October 2017, Stripe established a local subsidiary, Stripe Vietnam JCS, based in Hanoi, to acquire NEM Group's apparel business. Stripe Vietnam's registered capital is VND17.5 billion ($7.6 million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 2002, NEM Group operates 44 shops, about half of which are located in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. It focuses on fashion for OLs aged 20 to 40, with prices ranging from $45 to $70. Stripe plans to capture the middle class by launching new brands this year that are about 10% cheaper than existing brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stripe is expected to become the number one women's apparel company in Vietnam by the end of this year. Sales are expected to increase 30% year-on-year to 5.2 billion yen ($44.4 million). In addition, we plan to dispatch human resources from Japan to further improve the sewing skills of Vietnamese workers. In the long term, we aim for domestic sales of 8 billion yen and an operating margin of 25%.
