Pan Pacific plans to open the world’s largest Don Don Donki in Guam next year.

Construction of the 270,000sqft store has already commenced with a ground-breaking ceremony in the suburb of Tamuning.

Don Don Donki founder Takao Yasuda said that after three years of studying the market he believes Guam is an ideal location for Don Don Donki’s first store in Micronesia. The new store will be located on the corner of Marine Corps Drive and Airport Road.

“It’s a very ideal place for a local store as it is very close to the airport and very close to the main (villages) of Guam,” he said.

The project’s retail space will be 160,000sqft, featuring a wide selection of grocery items and in-house restaurants and eating areas. Sumitomo Mitsui Construction Co is the project’s main contractor.

“I’m confident that Guam will go far as a huge commercial domain in the future,” Yasuda said.
