The Vietnam Trade Office in the Philippines announced that on August 5, representatives of the Aboitiz Group, specifically Aboitiz Power, met with senior leaders and representatives of relevant agencies in Vietnam.

Earlier, in June 2025, the Vietnam Trade Office in the Philippines also had exchanges with high-ranking representatives from member units of the Aboitiz Group. In these meetings, the Aboitiz Group identified Vietnam as one of its key markets where they will increase investment in the coming time. The plan includes not only expanding existing projects but also seeking new investment opportunities, especially in the energy sector – their traditional strength through the member company Aboitiz Power Corporation.
The Trade Office stated that the Aboitiz Group is one of the largest and oldest conglomerates in the Philippines, with an estimated total asset value of about $17 billion.
