 Do Huu Duy Anh of Duc Giang Chemicals (left)

 

The successor of Duc Giang Chemicals

Do Huu Duy Anh works for his family-run company, Duc Giang Chemicals Group JSC. Before studying abroad, Anh was sent by his father to the factory in Long Bien district in Hanoi to work as a construction worker. Returning to Vietnam, he became the assistant to the CEO and two years later became deputy CEO of the company at the age of 25.

He took the office as CEO of Duc Giang six years later. Now Anh, 33, holds VND300 billion worth of shares.

Anh said it is unreasonable to consider Duc Giang a family-run company, because it lists shares on the bourse. Only the president and CEO are family members, while factory directors are not.

The son of US dollar female billionaire

In 2019, Tommy Nguyen, the son of Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao, the only female billionaire in Vietnam, became the co-founder of Swift 247, a technology startup operating in the field of logistics and forwarding.

When he was at school, he decided to ‘do something different’ regarding the mode of transport in the Vietnamese market. He found that Prime Amazon could ship goods in 29 states in the US within two days, while there were many problems in logistics services in Vietnam and Asia in the context of the e-commerce boom. That was why his startup was established.

In September 2020, Vietjet announced the restructuring and development of cargo transport by air using digital technology and e-commerce via an M&A between Vietjetair Cargo and Swift247.

In November 2020, Swift247 changed its business registration with charter capital of VND47 billion. The company shifted from a limited company into a joint stock company. Vietjet is the shareholder with controlling stake (67 percent of capital).

Boss Hien’s son

Do Vinh Quang, born in 1995, is the son of Do Quang Hien, who is chair of the board of directors of Trang Thi Trade and Service. He has been in this post since November 2020.

After becoming chair of the board of directors, the company organized an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting on the issuance of 40.5 million shares to existing shareholders at VND30,000 per share.

The issuance will be implemented in first and second quarter after which the company’s charter capital will rise from VND135 billion to VND540 billion.
