Acecook accompanies Vietnamese people - 30 years of innovation journey to enhance happiness

Thirty years of development of Acecook Vietnam is not only a journey of expanding scale, but also a process of spreading sustainable values. From the first instant noodle packages born with the mission of "Contributing to society through culinary path", Acecook has become a brand associated with millions of Vietnamese families, with constant innovation and the desire to improve happiness.

Start with empathy, endure with quality

Since 1993, when officially present in Vietnam through a joint venture model, Acecook has established a different direction. Originating from the desire to bring quality Japanese products to Vietnamese consumers, the enterprise has combined modern production technology transferred from the parent company with product development based on Vietnamese taste. Flavors are researched by a team of domestic experts, exploiting the depth of traditional cuisine to create a familiar but unique experience.

A clear demonstration of that orientation is the birth of instant noodles Pho beef flavor, chicken flavor, and Mi Ga in July 1995. The noodles simulated pho noodles, the rich broth true to Vietnamese taste helped the product quickly make its mark. Beyond the flavor factor, these products also marked a step forward in quality, when Acecook applied high quality standards in each stage of production. These strict requirements became a big problem for the domestic supply chain at that time. Instead of compromising, Acecook chose to accompany domestic suppliers. Step by step, the enterprise mastered the process, controlled quality and modernized production - laying a solid foundation for the journey of sustainable development later.

From "national" product to international brand

Five years later, Hao Hao was born and quickly became an instant noodle phenomenon in the 2000s. With its delicious, palatable flavor, especially the rich sour and spicy taste, delicious chewy noodles and reasonable price, the product has penetrated tens of millions of kitchens, becoming a part of the memories of many generations of Vietnamese people. By the end of 2024, more than 36 billion Hao Hao packages had been consumed, affirming the brand's enduring vitality and irreplaceable position in the hearts of consumers.

From that successful foundation, Acecook has continuously expanded its portfolio with familiar choices such as Phu Huong vermicelli, Nhip Song noodles, Hang Nga noodles, De Nhat pho, Modern cup noodles... Each product is a new discovery of taste and consumer lifestyle, but all maintain the Vietnamese spirit as the core value.

In parallel with the expansion of the portfolio, Acecook has also accelerated the expansion of production scale. The company currently operates 11 factories and 6 branches nationwide, creating a solid foundation for domestic distribution and export.

From this system, Acecook has gradually expanded its global presence, bringing products to more than 40 countries, including Japan - a market famous for its most stringent standards. Starting as a Vietnam - Japan joint venture, Acecook has shaped its international stature based on a sustainable development strategy. Joining the World Instant Noodles Association (WINA) in 2008 is a milestone affirming Acecook's long-term commitment to promoting the convenience food industry in a safe, transparent and responsible manner to the global community.

Innovation to enhance happiness

After three decades, Acecook has entered a new stage of development with the orientation of “Innovation to enhance happiness”. This is not only a long-term strategy, but also a specific commitment in each product, each process and each person. The 3HAPPY value continues to play a central role, with three pillars throughout: happiness for consumers, for society and for staff.

Acecook Vietnam will continue to affirm Acecook Vietnam’s pioneering position in the instant food industry, but also demonstrate the company’s deep commitment to creating positive values, improving the quality of life and moving towards a happy future for consumers, employees and the whole society.
