HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 March 2026 – Best Mart 360 Holdings Limited (“Best Mart 360” or the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”; stock code: 2360.HK), a leisure food retailer in Hong Kong, announced its results for the year ended 31 December 2025. During the year, the revenue recorded by the Group amounted to approximately HK$2,867,695,000 (2024: HK$2,805,146,000), representing an increase of approximately 2.2%.
During the Financial Year under Review, gross profit was approximately HK$1,035,074,000 (2024: HK$1,027,997,000), representing an increase of 0.7%. The Group’s gross profit margin for the year was approximately 36.1%, compared to approximately 36.6% in 2024. This contraction in margin was primarily attributable to the strategic implementation of enhanced promotional campaigns designed to navigate the ongoing trend of consumption downgrading and intensified market competition.
Profit attributable to owners of the Company for the year was approximately HK$219,730,000 (2024 (Restated): approximately HK$245,901,000), primarily due to a slight reduction in average revenue per store and a contraction in gross profit margin, which collectively impacted overall profitability. The net profit margin (before interest and tax) moderated to approximately 9.8%, down from approximately 11.2% for the year ended 31 December 2024 (Restated).
For the Financial Year under Review, basic earnings per share was approximately HK22.0 cents. The Board recommended the payment of final dividend of HK9.0 cents per share.
BUSINESS REVIEW
Strategy Adjustment & Opened 10New Retail Stores
As at 31 December 2025, the Group operated a total of 183 chain retail stores, including 178 chain retail stores (31 December 2024: 170 stores) in Hong Kong and 5 chain retail stores (31 December 2024: 6 stores) in Macau respectively. During the Financial Year under Review, the Group opened 10 new retail stores and closed 3 stores upon expiration of their respective lease terms in alignment with the Group’s strategy adjustment.
The ratio of rental expense (cash basis) to sales revenue of retail stores for the year ended 31 December 2025 was approximately 9.6%, which was similar to that of approximately 9.6% for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Introduced Popular Brands & Launched on Grocery Delivery Platform
Hong Kong residents’ growing propensity to spend in Mainland China, coupled with inbound visitors’ preference for in-depth experiences, more rational and prudent consumption patterns, as well as the intensified competition in the local market from Mainland China e-commerce players leveraging economies of scale, the Hong Kong retail market is undergoing a structural long-term transformation, with the industry’s competitive landscape and consumption behaviour being reshaped.
In response to the challenging business environment, the Group adopted a series of timely and targeted measures to navigate these difficulties. These included optimizing product mix and strengthening the offering of basic foodstuffs covering cereals, noodles, canned food, milk, chilled and frozen food, daily necessities as well as basic groceries. The Group also introduced popular Mainland brands as well as imported a wide range of specialty food from around the world to meet the needs and expectations of local consumers and visiting tourists. To further strengthen its business, the Group launched on the Foodpanda grocery delivery platform during 2025 to expand its online sales channels, and rolled out a variety of promotional initiatives including shopping vouchers. These initiatives collectively contributed to the Group’s sales growth during the Financial Year under Review.
The Group procured quality products from overseas suppliers as well as brand owners or importers in Hong Kong. For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group offered a total of approximately 3,425 stock keeping units (“SKU”) of products (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately 3,653 SKU) from suppliers principally from (but not limited to) Japan, Mainland China, Europe, Vietnam, Korea, the United States and other Asia-Pacific countries.
The Group sourced the most popular and trendy food products from various regions, striving to provide customers with diverse, multi-brand, and multi-category global product choices.
As at 31 December 2025, the total amount of inventories of the Group amounted to approximately HK$316,841,000 (31 December 2024: approximately HK$339,513,000), representing a decrease of approximately 6.7% year-on-year. The decrease in the Group’s total inventories was mainly attributable to optimised inventory management and the timing shift of the Lunar New Year holiday from January to February.
During the Financial Year under Review, the Group continued to actively develop private label products that on one hand allowed the Group to capture pricing advantages and exercise a higher level of quality control over its products and on the other hand further uplift its brand awareness and strengthen customers’ loyalty. For the Financial Year under Review, sales derived from private label products were approximately HK$520,821,000 (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately HK$477,222,000), accounted for approximately 18.2% of the Group’s revenue for the Financial Year under Review (for the year ended 31 December 2024: approximately 17.0%).
Expanded Customer Base & Enhanced Loyalty
To further deepen customer stickiness and broaden customers coverage, the Group used big data analysis and reformulated its marketing strategy to launch a new three-tier membership scheme and a second-generation mobile app in mid-June 2020. The new membership scheme helps to elevate brand positioning and market recognition, and the membership rewards have been fully optimised and enhanced, with more member benefits such as stamp reward for multiple-item purchase, special offers for selected products and access to the latest market information. During the Financial Year under Review, the number of the Group’s members increased from approximately 2,280,418 as at 31 December 2024 to approximately 2,395,862 as at 31 December 2025, representing an increase of approximately 5.1%.
The Group launched various marketing and promotional activities during the Financial Year under Review including the “Best Price” promotional campaign, which provided customers with a series of special offers for selected quality products from time to time to enhance customer loyalty. Meanwhile, the Group continued to advertise through television, newspapers, social media platforms and other media, which successfully attracted new customers encouraged repeat purchases and significantly enhanced market awareness of the Group.
PROSPECTS
Looking ahead, uncertainties in Sino-US relations, geopolitical risks and other factors will introduce further variables to economic recovery, and economic growth in Hong Kong and globally is expected to remain under pressure. The Board anticipates that the retail sector in Hong Kong will remain challenging in the near term. Nevertheless, the Group will continue to operate in a cautiously optimistic manner, closely monitor the development of various adverse factors that may impact the Group’s performance, and timely implement necessary and appropriate measures through refined operations and management to adapt to the ever-changing market environment.
The Group will continue to prioritize the Hong Kong market as its core focus, optimize its product mix and enhance the development of its private label products, with a wider range of staple foods and necessities to better meet consumer demand and enhance the Group’s competitiveness in the retail market.
To maintain sound operational efficiency, the Group will timely review the regional distribution of its brand stores, implement a moderate expansion policy and flexible leasing strategies, and actively pursue suitable opportunities to expand the retail network for its core retail brand “Best Mart 360º” and global gourmet brand “FoodVille” in Hong Kong and Macau, targeting a net increase of 10 retail stores annually under its dual-brand model, catering to the diverse needs of different customer segments for quality food products.
Mr. Hui Chi Kwan, Chief Executive Officer of the Group, said, “Faced with an increasingly complex operating environment, the Group will maintain a prudent and pragmatic approach in its operations and continue to work closely with its employees, customers and other stakeholders, striving to improve business performance and deliver stable returns to shareholders.”

Three new Laguna Phuket developments – spanning lakeside living, golf-front design and Angsana-branded luxury – to be showcased at Park Lane Hong Kong on 16–17 MayCaption
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 May 2026 – Banyan Group Residences is bringing three of its most anticipated new residential launches to Hong Kong this month, with a two-day sales exhibition taking place at Park Lane Hong Kong (Canvas, 26F) on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 May 2026, from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm. The event offers Hong Kong buyers a rare opportunity to explore and invest in some of Phuket’s most compelling new addresses, with dedicated sales teams on hand for private consultations.
The exhibitions follow a year of record residential sales for Banyan Group Residences, as growing numbers of global investors look to Phuket as a safe haven for capital – drawn by the island’s political stability, strong rental yields, year-round lifestyle appeal, and the relative value it continues to offer against comparable markets. Demand has been particularly robust from buyers across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, with Hong Kong remaining one of the Group’s most consistent source markets.
The three projects on show represent some of the most exciting new additions to Laguna Phuket – Asia’s premier integrated resort destination – and span a range of living concepts, price points, and design inspirations, united by the hallmark quality and hospitality expertise of Banyan Group Residences, Asia’s leading branded residential developer by volume.
“Hong Kong has consistently been one of our strongest buyer markets, and we look forward to welcoming buyers in person to discover what we believe is an exceptional line-up of new homes,” said Stuart Reading, Managing Director of Banyan Group Residences. “Whether you’re looking for a holiday retreat, a permanent base in a world-class resort community, or a smart long-term investment, this exhibition offers something genuinely compelling. High-quality property in a prime location at Laguna Phuket still represents outstanding value compared to equivalent homes in Hong Kong or other major cities.”
Bellaguna Lake Residences
Brand new blocks of Bellaguna Lake Residences will be revealed for the first time at the exhibition. Set beside a shimmering lake within Laguna Phuket – steps from Bang Tao Beach – the development takes its design cues from the sleek lines of a contemporary luxury yacht. Five elegantly elongated buildings feature dark wave-like façades and warm, light-filled interiors, with generous private terraces overlooking the lagoon. Residences include one- to three-bedroom condominiums and two- to three-bedroom penthouses with private rooftop pools, as well as a brand new category of two-bedroom residences with private pool.
Bellaguna is Banyan Group Residences’ newest residential brand, conceived specifically for premium year-round living outside of hotel inventory – yet fully supported by the Group’s renowned hospitality management standards.
Bellaguna Golf Residences
Set on land that once formed part of Phuket’s historic tin-mining landscape, Bellaguna Golf Residences draws its design identity from that heritage – soft horizontal lines and sculpted contours reinterpreted through a contemporary tropical lens. Low-rise buildings unfold amid lush gardens and a signature free-form pool, overlooking the fairways of the championship Laguna Golf Phuket course. A brand new block has also just been released for this project, which features a compact one-bedroom configuration, alongside one- to three-bedroom condominiums and two- to three-bedroom penthouses with private pools and sunset golf views.
Angsana Golf Residences Topaz
Inspired by the clarity and elegance of the topaz gemstone, Angsana Golf Residences Topaz comprises three gracefully curved low-rise buildings set within Laguna Phuket, with Sino-Portuguese design accents that subtly reference Phuket’s cultural heritage. The development offers two- and three-bedroom residences and exclusive penthouses with private rooftop pools, all enjoying panoramic views of the golf course, mountains, and the Andaman Sea. A signature rooftop ring-shaped pool completes the picture.
All three projects now have show units available to view at Laguna Property Sales Gallery
Banyan Living
Banyan Group has recently launched Banyan Living, a residential rental and marketing platform created to support owners of branded residences across the Group’s portfolio, while offering guests a professionally managed alternative to traditional home‑sharing platforms.
Developed as a structured, hospitality-led rental ecosystem, Banyan Living enables private owners to generate income from their residences, while providing guests who rent the properties assurance of the design integrity and professional service standards associated with Banyan Group.
Why Phuket, Why Now
Phuket continues to attract growing international interest as both a lifestyle destination and an investment market. Within Laguna Phuket, nationals of some 70 countries have chosen to make the resort community their home, drawn by year-round tropical living, world-class amenities, international schools, medical facilities, and a level of quality and security that is difficult to match elsewhere in the region.
Banyan Group Residences anticipates launching up to USD 1 billion in new luxury residential projects in Phuket over the next two to three years, reflecting the Group’s confidence in the market and the enduring strength of demand from international buyers.
Prospective buyers are welcome to visit the exhibition at Park Lane Hong Kong, Canvas (26F), on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 May 2026, between 11:00 am and 6:00 pm. Private appointments can be arranged in advance by contacting the team directly.
