Cargill has achieved a remarkable recognition in Vietnam, winning the TOP50 Corporate Social Responsibility Award (CSA) 2024 for the third year in a row in the “Outstanding CSR Activity” category, alongside its fourth consecutive HR Asia Award (HRAA) for “Best Companies to Work for in Asia”.
Cargill’s repeated recognition in the TOP50 CSA underscores its impactful contribution to the community over the past 29 years of the company’s operations in the country. Organized by publisher Nhip Cau Dau Tu since 2022, the TOP50 CSA honors businesses that implement sustainable development strategies and commit to green growth and community responsibilities, aiming to raise awareness of sustainable business practices in the private sector
Over the last three decades, Cargill in collaboration with several organizations and partners, has focused on enhancing the livelihoods of livestock and aqua farmers, raising animal health and welfare while tirelessly working on improving education for children nationwide. Since 1996, Cargill has trained over 1.7 million Vietnamese farmers in animal nutrition, health, farm management & biosecurity and transferred best practices through our widespread dealer network and direct farms. Cargill has also taken significant steps to make its operations more sustainable by implementing energy-efficient practices, process efficiencies and investing in renewable energy. Additionally, through Cargill Cares, a community impact flagship initiative, the company has built and handed over 114 schools, benefiting more than 17,000 students annually across 54 provinces, with a total investment exceeding US$6 million. The company is on the completion stage for three more school projects by autumn this year, bringing itself closer to the commitment of building 150 schools for Vietnam by 2030.
Reflecting on this achievement, Luan Nguyen, Cargill Vietnam Country President, said: “Winning the TOP50 CSA award for three consecutive years in Vietnam is a testament to our unwavering dedication to this country, especially to the farmers’ communities here. By enhancing farmers’ capabilities that enable better livelihoods and providing quality education, we are not just positively impacting lives today but building a brighter future for generations to come. Our focus continues to remain on promoting sustainable animal raising practices and supporting communities to build stronger, more resilient communities.”
Cargill Vietnam’s commitment to the nation extends to creating an exceptional workplace for its ~1,400 team members which has been recognized once again with the HRAA award for “Best Companies to Work for in Asia”, a prestigious international award in human resources, organized annually by HR Asia Magazine and covers 16 Asian countries and markets, including Vietnam. This accolade highlights Cargill’s comprehensive approach to employee engagement, empowering our people to create meaningful impact for themselves, our customers and the community.
“Achieving the HRAA award for the fourth year running highlights our commitment to our most important asset – our people,” added Luan. “Cargill offers a safe, unique environment for our people to bring their whole self to work, to experiment, to excel and to inspire others through innovative solutions. As we strive for excellence, we keep listening to our employees to improve HR practices while keeping employee families a part of our HR policies. As part of a diverse, learning-focused team, we empower our employees to make significant contributions to the organization, their own careers and to the community, while we continue to build a safe and inclusive work culture.”
These awards highlight Cargill Vietnam’s commitment to corporate responsibility and employee satisfaction, solidifying its status as an industry leader and a valued community partner, while striving to nourish the world in a safe, responsible and sustainable way. Next year will mark Cargill’s 30th anniversary in Vietnam.
