This is the first result of realizing the memorandum of understanding (MOU) worth 500 million USD signed between Vinh Phuc province - Sojitz - Vilico - Vinamilk, witnessed by Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh at the Vietnam - Japan Investment Promotion Conference 2021 (in Japan).

With a total investment of VND 1,670 billion, the complex in Vinh Phuc was officially started in 2023 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Vietnam - Japan diplomatic relations and completed the entire construction investment in 2024, in which the beef processing factory will officially come into operation from the fourth quarter of 2024.
