MERRYMART will have three (3) grocery retail formats:1. MERRYMART Grocery2. MERRYMART Market3. MERRYMART StoreInjap Investments Inc. is the parent company of MerryMart Grocery Centers Inc.MERRYMART has set its 12-12-12 Vision 2030 with the goal of rolling out a total of 1,200 MERRYMART branches nationwide, it aims to reach Php 120 Billion in systemwide sales revenue, and eyes a timetable to achieve the set targets within 12 years from today."This is going back to our basics. My grandfather started his grocery store in the 1950’s in our hometown. My parents as well opened their own  grocery business way back in 1989 and have been operating successfully for 30 years and counting. This background gives our family extensive experience in the retail business," said MerryMart Chairman Edgar “Injap” Sia IIMERRYMART plans to develop the company brand through company-owned stores, as well as opening it for franchise to the public.  MERRYMART will serve as a platform for the existing local and traditional groceries to convert and be part of a modern branded retail chain network while retaining ownership of the store as a franchisee of MERRYMART. Being part of the MERRYMART network will enable the current traditional retailers to future-proof themselves and keep them relevant for the next many decades, and also enable them to bridge the ongoing shift from traditional retail to modern retail. This shift is inevitable when a developing country evolves to eventually become a first world country. The company also expects to set up several MerryMart warehouses and distribution centers to support the MerryMart retail shops around the country and intends to locate these in DoubleDragon’s CentralHub warehouse complexes.
