About Chris Freund
In a May 2025 interview, Chris Freund discussed his firm's early investment in F88, a Vietnamese pawn shop chain. He stated that when Mekong Capital first invested, F88 had only 11 stores, and the decision was driven by the founders' "open-mindedness," "entrepreneurial spirit," and "big vision," rather than the specific business sector. Freund noted that some potential investors were hesitant about backing a pawn shop business, but Mekong Capital believed the investment would be successful. Freund also commented on F88's growth, observing that it had expanded from 11 branches to more than 800 since Mekong Capital's initial investment. He described F88 as a company he wants to hold "for a very long time" and expressed pride in being both an investor and a board member, stating that he believes in the founders and that the company will continue to be successful.
