“Through the survey of customers and experts, VinMart was highlighted for the diversity and quality of goods and after-sales services, while Mobile World is highly appreciated for its financial sources and brand,” outlined the report.

According to Vietnam Report, these companies are evaluated on three major criteria like financial capacity (which is referred from the latest financial statement), reputation on media channels, and surveying consumers about awareness and satisfaction with companies and products/services, and others.

Over the past years, the retail segment has recorded rapid growth. CAGR in 2013-2018 is 10.97 per cent. The total revenue of the segment is expected at $180 billion in 2020, equivalent to the increase of 26.6 per cent over 2018.

The high growth speed of retail is caused by the population of more than 97 million (in 2019), 60 per cent of whom are young (from 18-50). Besides this, the World Bank also anticipated that the expenses of every household will increase by 10.5 per cent per annum on average.
