“For the first year, next year, we’re aiming for an initial 30 [FamilyMart] stores. We’re still in the process of setting up the structures, and this is something that we feel is essential to enable us to develop more our mixed-use developments,” Jaime E. Ysmael, Ayala Land chief finance officer, told reporters following a public dialogue on foreign ownership restrictions at the Securities and Exchange Commission building in Mandaluyong City.

Last Tuesday, SIAL CVS Retailers, Inc. — a partnership between Varejo Corp. and Specialty Investments, Inc., wholly owned units of Ayala Land and Rustan-led Store Specialists, respectively — signed a shareholders agreement with Japanese firms FamilyMart Co., Ltd. and Itochu Corp. for the development and operation of FamilyMart stores in the country.
