Earlier, the company was also honoured for the fourth consecutive year at the 25th Golden Dragon Awards on May 13, featuring in the 'Top 10 Pioneering FIEs for People’s Life in Vietnam'.

The event was jointly held by Vietnam Economic Association - Vietnam Economic Times – VnEconomy, during the sixth Vietnam Connect Forum organised under the direction of the Central Committee for Policy and Strategy.

Vaibhav Bhanchawat, vice president and managing director of Mondelez Kinh Do Vietnam, noted that the awards reflect the efforts of Mondelez Kinh Do Vietnam in pursuing sustainable growth, with snacking made right and responsibly.

“We believe business growth must go hand in hand with responsibility towards the environment, communities and people. These recognitions motivate us to keep innovating, improving how we operate, and shaping a sustainable future for snacking in Vietnam,” he said.

These consecutive recognitions reflect Mondelez Kinh Do's consistent sustainability strategy, led by Mondelez International across four pillars – packaging, ingredients, climate, and community impact.

In Vietnam, the company pursues its sustainable packaging strategy through packaging reducing, redesigning, and fostering strategic partnerships with leading partners to drive the circular economy forward.

To reduce its climate impact, the company’s two factories in Hung Yen province and Ho Chi Minh City apply the global IL6S operational standard to minimise waste and digitise production, while scaling up renewable energy, cutting emissions and reusing water, contributing to significant annual reductions in CO₂ and water consumption.
