Dai Dung Construction Mechanical Trading Corporation (Dai Dung Group) is spearheading a landmark international project in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: the $700 million Misk Ilmi Museum, a symbol of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. In this venture, Dai Dung is responsible for 7,000 tons of steel structure, designing all Tekla Structures drawings, and supplying and installing the components, with a total contract value of $52 million (approximately VND 1.3 trillion). The museum features a curved dome integrated with clean energy, creating a vast space that showcases Vietnamese craftsmanship in one of the world’s most demanding markets.

Dai Dung is no stranger to the construction bidding world, having left its mark on numerous international projects. The company served as the steel structure contractor for several stadiums during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Lusail Stadium, where Dai Dung acted as the contractor, hosted both the opening and final matches of the 2022 World Cup.

Dai Dung Group has also significantly contributed to domestic infrastructure and industrial development, with projects such as Long Thanh International Airport, Noi Bai Airport Terminal T2, and the Hoa Phat Dung Quat Industrial Complex.

Unlike many companies that specialize in a single phase, Dai Dung controls the entire value chain: design, production, transportation, and installation. With six factory complexes spanning nearly 100 hectares, an annual capacity of 300,000 tons, and over 6,000 personnel—including nearly 1,000 engineers—the company confidently undertakes global mega-projects.

Dai Dung has made its mark in over 60 countries with iconic projects such as the Nihonbashi Building—Tokyo’s green symbol, the Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link—the world’s longest undersea tunnel, Powerhouse Parramatta—Australia’s iconic structure, and Shiplift—the largest lifting system serving the U.S. military with cutting-edge technology.

Trinh Tien Dung, Chairman of Dai Dung Group, embodies the philosophy: “To change the world, start by changing yourself.” Investing in people, automation technology, and digital management is the company’s long-term strategy.

Mr. Dung emphasizes that the company’s mission is to “bring Vietnam to the world” through high-quality mechanical and structural products, driven by Vietnamese ingenuity and creativity.

According to the latest business registration in August 2024, Dai Dung increased its charter capital from VND 1,338.5 billion to VND 1,753 billion. At the signing ceremony with FPT earlier in 2025, the Group announced a revenue target of $1 billion and plans to go public (IPO) in 2026.

At the Annual General Meeting held on March 29, it was announced that for the 2024-2025 fiscal year, Dai Dung Group aims to maintain double-digit growth. The planned revenue for this fiscal year is VND 9,000 billion (a 30% increase), with a production volume of 200,000 tons, up 56% year-on-year.
