Vietnamese dairy firm IDP to milk real estate sector
International Dairy Products JSC, a Vietnamese dairy company, has spent VND500 billion ($21.3 million) on setting up a real estate consulting and trading company.
The new venture called Green Light Investment JSC has a charter capital of VND500 billion, equivalent to 50 million shares with a par value of VND10,000 ($0.43) per share. With 49.99 million shares, IDP holds a 99.98% stake in Green Light.
The company is headquartered at 217 Nguyen Van Thu street, Da Kao ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City.
IDP currently records no subsidiaries, joint ventures or associates in its financial statements, which means Green Light is its only subsidiary and marks the dairy firm’s venture into real estate.

At the end of January, the IDP management board approved an investment project at the Expanded Bau Bang Industrial Park in Dau Tieng district, Binh Duong province.

In the second quarter of 2022, IDP recorded a net revenue and after-tax profit of VND1,539 billion ($65.66 million) and VND215.8 billion ($9.21 million), up 23% and down 5% year-on-year, respectively.
