Big Group Holdings Inaugurates 3D Golf Facility in Lao Cai

The inauguration event took place at the BIG Lao Cai complex, which includes a hotel, offices, apartments, a language training center, a travel company, and a coffee shop, now enhanced with a state-of-the-art 3D golf service.

Mr. Vo Phi Nhat Huy, Chairman of BIG‘s Board of Directors, emphasized: “BIG Golf 3D & Coffee is not just a sports and entertainment service, but also a hub for connecting entrepreneurs, golfers, and travelers. We aim to provide our guests with more than just accommodation; we want them to enjoy the most modern sports experiences and wonderful relaxation.”

The inauguration ceremony was attended by representatives from various business associations, golf clubs, and strategic partners, including Mr. Nguyen Quoc Chien, Secretary-General of the Lao Cai Golf Association, and Mr. Nguyen Quoc Thinh, Executive Director of Sa Pa Golf Course.

A highlight of the program was the ribbon-cutting ceremony and the announcement of the Longest Drive tournament, which garnered the interest of numerous local golfers.

BIG Golf 3D & Coffee utilizes golf simulation technology, allowing players to experience hundreds of renowned global golf courses indoors, regardless of the weather. Combined with a café area, it promises to become a go-to entertainment and networking spot for entrepreneurs, travelers, and the local golf community in Lao Cai.

Big Group Holdings, traded on the UPCoM exchange under the ticker BIG, operates in diverse sectors, with a focus on the Big Hotel chain and commercial real estate investments. The company owns and operates numerous hotels in Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Hue, Lao Cai, Can Tho, and Tay Ninh, totaling almost 300 rooms.

With a vision to become a nationwide brand of high-quality, affordable hotels, BIG is committed to investing in a value-added services ecosystem, encompassing cuisine, entertainment, sports, and co-working spaces. The company aims to expand to 20-30 hotels in the next two years while increasing non-accommodation revenue through complementary services.

Indoor Golf Course of Golf 3D

BIG developed the indoor 3D Golf facility for four key reasons. Firstly, to enhance guest experiences at the hotels. Instead of merely offering accommodations, BIG aims to provide on-site entertainment and sports options, fostering relaxation and networking opportunities for guests and entrepreneurs.

Secondly, to capitalize on the growing popularity of golf in Vietnam. According to the Vietnam Golf Association, the number of golfers is increasing rapidly, especially among high-income individuals and entrepreneurs, who align with Big Hotel’s target market.

Thirdly, the indoor 3D Golf facility offers weather-independent operations, ensuring year-round play despite the variable Northern and mountainous region climates, thus providing BIG with a stable source of sports-related revenue.

Lastly, the 3D Golf facility creates a competitive advantage for the hotel chain. Not many affordable hotels in Vietnam offer such advanced golf simulation facilities, setting BIG apart and fostering guest loyalty.

As per its plans, Big Group Holdings will introduce 3D Golf facilities across its hotel network, coupled with tournaments and networking events, to build a strong community, enhance its brand value, and diversify its revenue streams.
