China’s large-scale consumer electronics retailer Suning Appliance said Wednesday it will take a commanding stake in Japanese competitor Laox through a private placement of shares.

Suning Appliance Co and its parent Suning Appliance Group will purchase a blended 257 million portions in Laox for nine billion yen ($111 million), as asserted by a declaration filed to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

The share position will increase Suning Appliance’s stake in Laox to 51 per hundred from 34.28 per hundred, Suning said in the statement. Its parent will contain 14.3 percent.

Suning aspires to open 150 Laox Life outlets in 25 Chinese towns encompassing Beijing and Shanghai throughout the next five years to deal consumer electronics as well as playthings, animation and comic goods and musical instruments, it said.

Suning acquired into the labouring Japanese buyer electronics retailer for the first time in 2009, buying a 27.36 per hundred stake for 800 million yen. It has expanded its holdings in Laox some times since.

Suning had more than 1,300 shops in mainland China, Hong Kong and Japan at the end of 2010, developing 75.5 billion yuan ($11.67 billion) in income, up 29.5 per hundred from the preceding year.
