Building the systems that sustain everyday life in Laos.
Tang Chareon (TCR) Group is a Lao holding company developing essential businesses across construction, hospitality, retail and real estate — connecting people, systems and partnerships since 1994.
A trusted institutional partner
We measure success by more than financial results — by the trust we earn and the everyday lives we help improve.
Institutional Trust
Three decades of governing our businesses with fairness and consistency — earning legitimacy as a responsible institution, not just an operator.
Collective Synergy
We integrate businesses, knowledge and capabilities into one ecosystem that enables stable growth beyond any single subsidiary.
People Centric
We place people at the centre of growth, ensuring our work positively shapes everyday life across communities in Laos.
Four pillars, one ecosystem
An integrated group spanning the foundations of modern Lao life — from the roads beneath our cities to the hotels and marketplaces that sustain them.
Construction & Infrastructure
Roads, bridges, buildings, transmission lines and five prestressed-concrete factories.
Hospitality & Tourism
Champasak Grand Hotel and Amari-operated properties in Vang Vieng and Vientiane.
Retail & Real Estate
TCR Home Store, Good Land Real Estate, supermarkets and marketplaces.
Lifestyle & Ventures
Friendship Mall, Hitachi Elevator Laos, fitness and strategic brand partnerships.
Our group brands
Twelve businesses across four sectors — united under Tang Chareon (TCR) Group.
Partnerships that endure
TCR works alongside government, international operators and communities across Lao PDR.
"A dependable infrastructure partner. TCR delivered concrete supply and road works to specification, on schedule, across multiple state projects."
"Building to international hospitality standards takes a serious owner. The Amari properties reflect the quality and ambition TCR brings to every build."
"From building materials to finished homes, TCR Home Store has become the reliable name households and professionals across Laos turn to."
"They do business honestly, in every sector. That is why people trust them — and why families here are proud to have their children work at TCR."
"Pakse would not be as beautiful as it is today without TCR Group."
"The construction is finished when people trust it."
"Passing the test, not just passing the time."
From a single factory to a multi-industry group
In 1994, as Lao PDR set out to modernise its infrastructure, the Tang Chareon Prestressed Concrete Factory was founded in Champasak Province — supplying the concrete poles and cross-arms that carried power to the nation.
Three decades on, TCR Group is a holding company spanning construction, hospitality, retail and real estate — but the belief that started it all remains: shared responsibility for the future.
- Established 1994 · Headquartered in Pakse, Champasak
- Class IV road & bridge construction qualification
- 12 business units across four sectors
Let's build what lasts, together.
Whether you are a government body, an international operator or a strategic investor, TCR Group is ready to be your trusted institutional partner in Laos.
Partner With UsWe are the Bridge.
Connecting people, systems and strategic partnerships to create value that endures — the foundation of everyday life in Laos.
Three decades of building the foundations of Lao life
In 1993, the Government of Lao PDR introduced policies to promote industrial development and infrastructure growth. In response, the Tang Chareon Prestressed Concrete Factory was established in 1994 — becoming a key supplier of concrete poles and cross-arms for state infrastructure projects.
From that single factory in Champasak, TCR expanded into road and bridge construction, buildings, transmission lines, and eventually hospitality, retail and real estate. Today, Tang Chareon (TCR) Group Co., Ltd. is a holding company operating twelve business units across Lao PDR.
We don't just build businesses; we build the systems that sustain everyday life. We don't just pursue change; we drive evolution for the communities we serve.
Our position, promise & vision
Two ideas sit behind the name we give ourselves.
Social Growth
The community's overall improvement beyond economic figures — including well-being, skills, opportunity, social trust and quality of life.
Integrator
A collaborative way of working that aligns shared goals, enabling sustainable growth through capability, trust and coordination rather than control.
Position
We are a holding company committed to developing essential businesses that support fundamental living and long-term progression — through synergy and strategic partnerships.
Promise
"Empowering the everyday, advancing tomorrow." Value we create is measured by human impact, not financial results alone.
Vision
To serve as a societal backbone that integrates essential foundations — uplifting everyday living and enabling long-term societal progress through responsible partnerships.
Our values
The mindset and discipline behind everything we build.
Grow Responsibly
We pursue growth carefully and sustainably, considering the long-term impact on our people, our partners and society. Growth without responsibility is not growth — it is risk.
Work Systematically
We plan clearly, coordinate well and work with discipline to deliver stable, consistent results. Systems create reliability, and reliability builds reputation.
Earn Trust
We earn trust by doing what we promise — with honesty, reliability and professional know-how. Trust is not given; it is built one commitment at a time.
Society Driven
We make decisions with society in mind, aiming to support everyday living and enable long-term progress. Business that does not serve society has no lasting foundation.
"We believe that lasting progress is never achieved alone. It is a collective journey — shaped by shared responsibility, guided by integrity, and sustained by trust."
We are the bridge connecting people, systems and strategic partnerships. We create the bedrock of everyday life — from the infrastructure that shapes our cities to the hotels, shopping destinations and marketplaces that sustain it.
