Vinamilk 50th anniversary state honors and celebrations

Overview

In late July and August 2026, Vinamilk celebrated its 50th anniversary with high-profile state honors and corporate wellness activities.

During a ceremony in Hanoi on 23 July, the company received the Hero of Labor title for the second time via a decree signed by President Tô Lâm. CEO Mai Kiều Liên was also honored with the Independence Medal (Third Class). In Ho Chi Minh City, the company was awarded the First-Class Independence Order, presented by Nguyen Van Duoc, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee. The award recognized Vinamilk’s contributions to the national economy, the domestic dairy industry, and the nutritional health of Vietnamese generations. Officials expressed expectations for the firm to lead in green transformation, digital economy integration, and Net Zero commitments.

As part of the anniversary celebrations, the company organized an online running race titled “50 years of a journey, thousands of footsteps moving together.” Taking place during the first 15 days of August 2026, the event involved 1,563 employees from 30 different units across Vietnam, including office staff and workers from farms, factories, and logistics centers. Participants accumulated a total of 89,424 kilometers—a distance equivalent to circling the Earth more than twice. The initiative aimed to promote a healthy lifestyle, positive energy, and internal solidarity among the company’s multi-generational workforce.
