VNVC recognized as Vietnam’s leading pharmaceutical company for consecutive years

Consistently ranked among the top 10 most reputable pharmaceutical companies for many consecutive years, VNVC Immunization System has solidified its position as a leader in Vietnam's vaccination sector, earning the trust of Vietnamese people.

Despite the ongoing economic challenges following the COVID-19 pandemic, VNVC Immunization System continues to experience breakthrough growth, consistently opening new, modern, and safe centers nationwide, serving millions of customers annually.

In 2024, VNVC introduced and implemented the first vaccinations in Vietnam for 4 crucial vaccines: the new generation meningococcal group B vaccine; the 23-valent pneumococcal vaccine, protecting against pneumonia, meningitis, and bacteremia; the dengue fever vaccine; and the shingles vaccine. The dengue fever vaccine, in particular, is expected to be a powerful “weapon” in combating the dengue fever epidemic, which causes hundreds of thousands of cases and dozens of deaths annually. By December 2024, VNVC had successfully introduced and implemented the first vaccinations in Vietnam for a total of 15 new vaccines.

Significantly, VNVC achieved a major milestone in 2024 by signing a collaboration agreement with Sanofi (France), a leading global pharmaceutical company, to move towards vaccine production in compliance with EU GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards at VNVC's factory. This collaboration marks the first time a Vietnamese private enterprise has entered into a strategic partnership for advanced technology transfer with a world-leading group like Sanofi to produce crucial vaccines locally in Vietnam.

VNVC's recognition as the top pharmaceutical distributor in the 2024 Top 10 ranking is a timely and accurate acknowledgment of the efforts made by its nearly 10,000 doctors, nurses, and medical personnel over the past 8 years.

To achieve these successes, from its establishment, VNVC has prioritized significant investment in its cold storage system, vaccine storage, and administration processes, to ensure optimal vaccine quality and customer safety, and in developing a professional team of doctors, nurses, and medical staff.

VNVC boasts a network of main cold storage facilities in the North, Central, and South regions, along with hundreds of vaccine cold storage warehouses and cold chains meeting international GSP standards at each center. This allows for the simultaneous storage of over 400 million doses of high-quality vaccines under consistent, stable temperatures of 2-8°C.

The cold storage facilities are fully equipped with buffer zones and designated areas for vaccine import, export, special storage, and monitoring. Each VNVC vaccine cold storage facility has at least 3 power sources to ensure independence from the national grid and absolute vaccine safety.

Vietnam's only nationwide immunization center network has made significant investments in a large-scale vaccine storage system, meeting global standards for all vaccine storage criteria to ensure quality and user safety.

VNVC continues to invest in technological advancements and big data management systems. Beyond its revolutionary lifetime vaccination reminder text messages, customer service hotline, and post-injection reaction support, VNVC, with technological experts from Google and leading US tech centers, is developing a robust big data system, optimizing its "Immunization Assistant" mobile app, and researching and developing cutting-edge technologies. This promises groundbreaking advancements in 2025 and beyond.

VNVC demonstrates its commitment to employee well-being through practical benefits and welfare programs, enhancing the quality of life for over 10,000 employees, ensuring fair compensation and benefits, and fostering a work environment that encourages dedication and contributions to the community, driving the organization's overall growth.

Weekly online interactions are also conducted on reputable social media platforms such as VTVgo, VTV24, VnExpress, and Thanh Nien Newspaper.

Significantly, VNVC continues to make substantial investments in multi-platform marketing and communications, organizing large-scale programs and competitions for millions of customers nationwide, including the "Fun and Healthy Summer" Check-in and Review contest, the "Vaccination - Untold Stories" writing competition, the "I Draw VNVC Vaccination Heroes" children's drawing contest, and the "VNVC Vaccination: My Story" campaign. VNVC continuously expands its website and nationwide network of hundreds of fanpages, broadening its multi-channel reach at the local level to engage with, and promptly address customer inquiries and post-vaccination feedback from all customers across the country.

In 2024, VNVC launched its VIP Vaccination service, offering a private, luxurious, and exclusive space separate from the standard vaccination area, enhancing service that caters to busy clients or those requiring expedited vaccination, ensuring privacy and eliminating wait times.

With the goal of promoting a "proactive healthy living" lifestyle, VNVC has, for many years, strived to communicate accurate and diverse information about vaccines and immunization to the public, thereby increasing vaccination rates to protect health and improve the quality of life for Vietnamese people. Simultaneously, VNVC has implemented numerous solutions to help customers access vaccines. VNVC was the first to launch a "vaccinate first, pay later" program, with VNVC covering all bank interest charges. As of July 2024, VNVC had disbursed 100 billion VND (~ 4.2 million USD), enabling nearly 7,000 children and adults to receive over 100,000 doses of high-quality vaccines, protecting their health amidst dangerous diseases.
