In particular, the company also expands factory tour programs, welcoming about 10,000 visitors each year to visit factories nationwide to create opportunities for consumers to directly observe the production process, build trust and peace of mind about product quality, as well as instruct on how to use noodles scientifically.
This is also an opportunity for businesses to connect more closely with consumers, listen to opinions, understand needs, and thereby bring about appropriate improvements to ensure superior quality for both products and services.
Building a happy, inspiring working environment
One of the key factors that helps Acecook Vietnam succeed on its journey of sustainable development is its focus on human resource development. A positive working environment, inspiring corporate culture, and respect for human values have created the strength to unite more than 6,000 employees at Acecook Vietnam.
To build a sustainable human resource, Acecook Vietnam focuses on promoting a culture of innovation through initiatives and flexible policies, encouraging employees to develop their capacity and propose creative ideas.

Promoting sustainable production, joining hands to protect the green planet
Following the direction of sustainable development, in 2024, Acecook Vietnam will take important steps in minimizing the impact on the environment. Notably, the move to convert the packaging of cup noodles, bowls, and trays to environmentally friendly materials: Using paper cups instead of plastic cups for Modern, Handy Hao Hao, Caykay products... as well as initially testing the removal of plastic forks in mini cup noodles.
Despite increasing production costs due to packaging changes, Acecook Vietnam is still steadfast in promoting this innovation to reduce the amount of plastic used, limit plastic waste in the environment, while maintaining food quality and safety standards. This effort not only positively impacts consumers, strengthens brand trust, but also makes a practical contribution to environmental protection.
Aiming at sustainable instant noodle products that contribute to environmental protection, Acecook Vietnam not only focuses on reducing plastic waste but also switching to clean energy. Accordingly, from 2021, the company will install a boiler system using liquefied petroleum gas imported from Japan, helping to reduce about 43% CO2, 70% NOx and completely eliminate SO2 compared to coal boilers.
By 2023, Acecook Vietnam will gradually switch to Biomass boilers, using agricultural by-products at the remaining factories. The goal is that by 2025, Acecook Vietnam will complete the transition to clean energy at all factories, contributing to reducing greenhouse gases, saving energy, protecting the environment and combating climate change.

In addition, Acecook Vietnam also uses green energy from solar power systems to produce instant noodles. The rooftop solar power system installed at the main office building and factory in Ho Chi Minh City can provide an average output of about 900,000 kWh/year. This amount of electricity is equivalent to the amount of electricity used to produce about 3.6 million packages of Hao Hao noodles.
In addition to serving production, the electricity generated is also used for the operations of the main office building in Tan Binh Industrial Park, Ho Chi Minh City, with nearly 400 employees working there.
This environmentally friendly green energy system not only contributes to reducing emissions and optimizing costs in the Ho Chi Minh City area but is also being expanded to the Vinh Long factory, expected to be operational in 2026, further affirming Acecook Vietnam's commitment to sustainability.
