profit of 10.75 trillion VND (477 million USD) this year, up 8.5 percent and

During the annual shareholders’ meeting in Ho Chi Minh City on March 31, Vinamilk planned to pay dividends equivalent to at least half of its post-tax profit.

Vinamilk General Director Mai Kieu Lien said its market share has hit 58 percent, up 1 percent each year. Last year, it rose by 2 percent, nearly doubling the target.
Sales of traditional products such as milk powder and fresh milk grew as planned while new products such as milk with less sugar, walnut soya milk and organic milk have also been put up on the market.
Shareholders voted yes to a plan to issue additional one share to each one owning five shares, with a total less than 290.3 million shares.
Vinamilk’s chartered capital is expected to increase by 2.903 trillion VND to 17.415 trillion VND.
The meeting elected Alain Xavier Cany, chief representative and Chairman of Jardine Matheson Limited in Vietnam and Nguyen Chi Thanh, Deputy General Director of the State Capital Investment Corporation to the Board of Directors.
Vinamilk gained top spot in the list of 100 Best Places to Work in Vietnam for 2017 which was announced by Anphabe, a career network of management professionals, and market research firm INTAGE Vietnam. It was followed by Nestlé Vietnam, Viettel, Vietcombank, Coca-Cola Vietnam, and Samsung.-VNA
