Breastfeeding Journey
Nowadays, mothers are facing many challenges in their journey of raising children, especially breastfeeding for at least the first 6 months of life. The high rate of Vietnamese mothers having to return to work while their children are still breastfeeding, along with the increasing rate of cesarean sections over the years, has a significant impact on the physical and mental health of mothers. At the same time, this also brings risks to the development of the baby in the first years of life when there is a lack of breast milk due to certain circumstances.
Faced with this situation, formula milk manufacturers have continuously promoted research on new technologies to address the urgent needs of mothers, especially efforts to supplement nutrients that simulate the ingredients in breast milk. And in recent years, Vinamilk has pioneered breakthrough scientific research results with the first 6 HMO technology in Vietnam, present in Optimum formula milk products.
The product synthesizes many types of HMO (6 HMO) and many nutrients with content and features approaching the "gold standard of breast milk". Thanks to this achievement, Vinamilk has become the first and only representative of Vietnam to be invited as a speaker at the Growth Asia Summit 2025 in Singapore - Asia's largest forum on growth opportunities for the food, beverage and nutrition industry.
The event also brought together leading nutrition experts in the region to share about the outstanding technological advances that contribute to defining the “new standard” for child nutrition in the region. Previously, Vinamilk’s breakthrough formula with 6 HMOs was also selected to be presented at the Global Dairy Congress 2025 held in the Netherlands.

The mark of Vietnamese milk brands leading the regional milk market
As a milk brand that has accompanied generations of Vietnamese people for nearly 50 years, from the first can of made-in-Vietnam powdered milk, Vinamilk today has gone beyond the national scale to become the "leading bird" of the regional milk industry and is recognized by international experts.
Mr. Gary Scattergood, Asia- Pacific Regional Director of the Asia Development Conference, shared: "I appreciate Vinamilk's breakthrough not only because of the nutritional science advancement they created with the first 6 HMOs in Vietnam but also because of their empathy-based and user-centric approach. It is truly a valuable contribution to the conference".

With a deep understanding of Vietnamese consumers and a persistent commitment to research and development, Vinamilk with its Optimum formula 6 HMO product line has created a new level of nutrition for the dairy industry not only in Vietnam but also internationally.
According to research, with a caesarean section rate of up to 37%, children are not able to fully enjoy the potential benefits for the digestive and immune systems. Therefore, the 6 HMO formula including 2'-FL, DFL, LNT, 3-FL, 6'-SL, 3'-SL belonging to all 3 HMO groups helps to enhance the health of the digestive and immune systems of children. With outstanding values, this breakthrough also opens a new direction for the formula milk industry, when many manufacturers are upgrading to the 6 HMO standard.

In addition to the breakthrough of 6 HMOs, Vinamilk also pioneered in "setting international standards" with the highest commitment to product quality, safety and purity. In 2023, Vinamilk Optimum Gold became the first brand in Asia to receive the Purity Award and the "First 1,000 Day Promise" certification from the CLP (Clean Label Project), USA. These two prestigious awards from the US affirm the highest standards of purity and safety for children at an important foundation stage. Vinamilk is also a business with a modern infrastructure comparable to many large corporations with 16 factories at home and abroad.
Binh Duong factory is the most modern powdered milk factory in Asia, certified by the FDA (USA), with a total capacity of tens of thousands of tons/year. According to Brand Finance 2023, Vinamilk is currently in the Top 6 most valuable milk brands globally.
With its outstanding achievements, Vinamilk is proving its capacity as a leading Vietnamese brand. Now, Vietnam is no longer a “follower” in the formula milk industry - which is the playground of multinational corporations, but has risen to set a new level for the region. Converging all the elements such as leading advanced technology, deep understanding of users and safe, pure quality that meets international standards, Vinamilk milk brand hopes to accompany Vietnamese mothers to raise their children more appropriately, effectively and happily.
