Brand Finance – the world’s leading independent brand valuation and strategy consultancy – in conjunction with the brand consulting firm Mibrand Vietnam JSC has announced the 50 most valuable brands in Vietnam in 2022.

This is an annual event and the seventh year in which the Brand Finance Vietnam Forum has been organised in Vietnam.

Managing director of Mibrand Lai Tien Manh said, “We are really impressed with the spectacular growth rate of leading brands in Vietnam in 2022. The Brand Finance Vietnam 2022 report will become the most important measure for the success of brands in all fields across the country.”

Alex Haigh, managing director of Brand Finance Asia Pacific commented, “Despite the pandemic, Vietnam has maintained its economic stability and has become a rapidly growing and increasingly diversified market. However, to continue to grow in brand value and help the country move from being product oriented to marketing and brand driven, Vietnamese brands need to be open to change, react quickly, diversify, and become more transparent with all stakeholders.”
