Vingroup ranks among Asia-Pacific’s top 60 companies

Vietnamese conglomerate Vingroup (HoSE: VIC) has been ranked among the top 60 Asia-Pacific companies in 2026, according to a new survey released by TIME magazine in partnership with data firm Statista.

In the Asia-Pacific’s Best Companies of 2026 ranking published this week, Vingroup placed 57th overall with a score of 89.68, marking the highest position ever achieved by a Vietnamese company on the list.

The ranking evaluates 500 companies across the region based on three criteria: financial performance, environmental, social and governance (ESG) transparency, and employee satisfaction, TIME said.

Vingroup ranked ahead of several major regional and global peers, including ride-hailing platform Grab (69th), Chinese technology group Tencent (70th), and Japan’s Fast Retailing (100th) - the owner of Uniqlo.

TIME cited Vingroup’s record financial results in 2025 as a key driver of its improved standing. The group reported consolidated net revenue of VND332.77 trillion ($12.43 billion), up 76% year-on-year and the highest level in its history.

Growth was underpinned by the launch and handover of large-scale residential developments nationwide, alongside rapid expansion in technology and industrial businesses, including electric vehicles.

Beyond financial performance, Vingroup also scored strongly on workplace metrics, ranking 55th globally for employee satisfaction, according to the survey.

Property developer Vinhomes (HoSE: VHM), a core subsidiary of Vingroup, was also included in the ranking, placing 352nd with a score of 80.69.

Vinhomes reported consolidated net revenue of VND154.1 trillion ($5.93 billion) in 2025, while net profit rose 20% from a year earlier to VND42.1 trillion ($1.62 billion).

TIME said ESG factors carried greater weight in this year’s assessment. Vingroup was recognized for its strategy to build green industrial capabilities, particularly through its electric vehicle arm VinFast, as the group seeks to position itself within global energy-transition supply chains.

This marks the third consecutive year that Vingroup or its subsidiaries have appeared in TIME’s global and regional rankings. VinFast was previously named among TIME’s 100 Most Influential Companies in 2024, while Vingroup was included in TIME’s World’s Best Companies list in 2025, the first Vietnamese firm to receive that recognition.

VIC shares were traded at VND160,400 ($6.18) each as of mid-Friday.
