It will be hard not to remember the 29^th of Janurary; that fateful day when VINMART dropped its shop in the Town Square. It is a day that changed the face of Ponyville. With its cake-like silhouette standing out in the skyline, nopony can’t help but wonder how this will change their town. This isn’t the first VINMART to come to Equestria either. “We started from a small corner store to dozen of stores in various sizes, including the flagship store you see here today in Ponyville. […] It is made with plenty of expansion in mind,” said Lavender Haze, general manager of the Ponyville Vinmart. While a lot of ponies have expressed concern over such a large store being placed in such a small town, Miss Haze responded with confidence. “Ponyville is developing well recently and our corporation would love embrace and enchant this growth.” VINMART seems to be so confident about Ponyville’s market that they plan to make the Ponyville VINMART their corporate headquarters because it is, “strategically, a good logistic location.” This could mean a bright future for VINMART as they become more closely tied with the community.
