HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Aug. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Vinamilk, Vietnam's leading dairy producer, has been one of the few businesses that managed to strive amid the global COVID-19 pandemic. Apart from solely boosting local operations, Vinamilk has continued to expand business overseas and is now reaping the rewards of a decision made during testing times. In announcing its earnings report for the second quarter of 2020, Vinamilk reported US $670.98 million (VND 15,495 billion) in net revenue, up nearly 10% against the last quarter.

These efforts contributed US $59.5 million (VND1,370 billion) to the total export net revenue, an increase of 26.8 percent against Q1 and an increase of 7.1 percent year-on-year, accounting for 9 percent of the consolidated net revenue.
