IDP has recorded no subsidiaries, joint ventures or associates in its financial statements, which means Green Light was its only subsidiary and marked the dairy firm’s venture into real estate.

At the end of the first quarter of 2023, IDP's net revenue reached VND1.58 trillion ($67.15 million), up 27% year-on- year. The company's after-tax profit was VND218 billion ($9.28 million), down 8%.

It aims to achieve revenue of VND7.14 trillion ($304 million) and post-tax profit of VND776 billion ($33 million) for 2023, up 17% and down 4% compared to 2022, respectively.

IDP, established in 2004, operates dairy brands that are familiar to Vietnamese consumers like LiF, Kun, Bavi and LOF. The company currently owns two large-scale factories in Ba Vi district, Hanoi and Cu Chi district, HCMC.
