Industrializing Agriculture
Mr. Nguyễn Việt Thắng, CEO of Hoa Phat Group (HOSE: HPG) and Chairman of HPA, shared insights into the steel giant’s venture into agriculture.
Hoa Phat entered the agricultural sector in 2015. In 2016, HPA was established to oversee all agricultural operations under HPG, creating a closed-value chain from animal feed production to livestock farming. Currently, HPA operates 7 pig farming clusters covering nearly 388 ha, 3 Australian cattle farms spanning 625 ha, 2 poultry farms across 50 ha, and 2 feed mills with a total capacity of 600,000 tons. Annual production reaches 750,000 market pigs, 150,000 Australian cattle, and 336 million eggs.

“Agriculture is Hoa Phat’s second-largest sector after steel, now in its 10th year. As an industrial company, we approach it with an industrial mindset—large-scale, rigorous, and systematic from the start,” said Mr. Thắng.
The Chairman of HPA emphasized that listing 30 million shares on HOSE is a strategic move to expand the value chain. It also offers investors more opportunities in Hoa Phat’s agriculture sector, enhancing transparency, credibility, and access to secondary capital. The raised funds will strengthen financial capacity, restructure capital, supplement working capital, and expand operations.
“After 10 years, HPA is ready to become a standalone entity within Hoa Phat Group, listed on the stock exchange. Post-listing, transparency will be paramount. HPA will operate and manage finances independently. This also attracts strategic investors, positioning HPA as a true industry leader,” added Mr. Thắng.
Mr. Thắng explained the decision to issue only 30 million shares. While HPA could issue more, this approach aims to attract additional investors or strategic partners. Several institutions have expressed interest in HPA shares, but the company prioritizes broad public ownership over concentration among a few large shareholders.
“We aim for HPA to trade 2-3 million shares daily. Institutional investors seeking large volumes are on our list, and if possible, HPG plans to divest shares to engage this group.”
