FamilyMart, Uny may put off business integration accord

Retailers FamilyMart Co. and Uny Group Holdings Co. are mulling putting off the conclusion of a basic accord on their planned business integration to September or later, it was learned on Thursday.

This is because Uny’s work to draw up measures to shore up its slumping general merchandise store operations has been delayed, informed sources said. The two firms originally planned to reach a basic accord this month.

Still, there is no change in their goal of realizing the integration in September 2016 after obtaining approval at their respective general shareholder meetings in May the same year, according to the sources.

FamilyMart, a major convenience store operator, and Uny said in March this year that they had started negotiations on integrating their operations.
