HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Nov.17, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Vinamilk, Vietnam's leading dairy company, has made significant progress in

ensuring its production capacity can meet the domestic and export demand in the

next two to three years with two vital construction projects.

The first will see the building of the largest dairy plant in Hung Yen

province, and the second being the Moc Chau dairy complex in the northwest

going along with the existing factories and farms system of Vinamilk. When

finished, these two projects will increase the 20% production capacity of

Vinamilk in preparation for the foreseeable future and strengthen the company's

position in the market.

The Hung Yen dairy plant will connect existing Vinamilk dairy farms,

warehouses, and distribution systems to create a sustainable ecosystem and

deliver substantial economic benefits. The dairy plant with a total capacity of

400 million liters per year will produce a variety of dairy products to

increase supply to Northern Vietnam and for export to ASEAN regions, China,

Japan, and South Korea amongst others.

The USD 130 million Moc Chau dairy complex, on the other hand, will be a

modern, closed agricultural ecosystem consisting of high-tech dairy farms and

processing factories that will serve as an additional ecotourism factor. This

project which will be implemented in two phases will ultimately produce up to

1,000 tonnes per day to adequately meet global demands.

Vinamilk's production facilities in Vietnam, including 13 factories and 14

farms, have been following international standards, contributing to its brand

value and rapid growth over the decade. Over the last 15 years, a total of USD

615 million have been invested in its factories.

The company also diversified into the powdered milk segment with two factories

in Vietnam. One of them - the Vietnam Powdered Milk Factory – has a production

capacity of 54,000 tonnes per year, meeting the needs of nearly one million

children every year with well-known product ranges such as Dielac, RiDielac,

and Optimum Gold.

More importantly, the variety of dairy offerings is produced using highly

automated systems powered by leading technology to lock in the nutrients and

natural taste, especially seen in Vinamilk's Optimum Gold. This baby infant

formula contains HMO, the third most abundant component found in breast milk.

HMO alongside 26 vitamins, minerals, and DHA help prevent pathogen adhesion,

support healthy digestion, and enhance the immune system.

"Vinamilk products are exported to over 57 countries and territories globally.

With our production capacity ramped up, we are better positioned to serve the

various needs of the global market," shared Vo Trung Hieu, International

Business Director of Vinamilk. "Our commitment to our customers remains strong,

with the research and development of new product formulas aligned with market

needs, including our design and packaging that are made from recycled

materials."
