It will be attracting a lot of business, wealth, and tourism, which is a great thing for us.”
Following its successful debut at the China International Consumer Products Expo, XOR opened it’s Flagship Southeast Asian boutique in the heart of Hanoi, Vietnam.

Mr. Hutchison, when asked why he decided to enter the East Asian market replied: “Asia as a whole is the biggest luxury market in the world, and Vietnam, with a stable and fast-growing economy is part of this. People in East Asia are enjoying increased spending power and can afford the finer things in life. China and Vietnam, where we have chosen to debut our brand are also destinations for many international visitors and foreign expats.”
