DAP fertilizer production at DAP Joint Stock Company No. 2 - Vinachem. |
In recent months, the financial, production and business targets of the Viet Nam Chemical Group (Vinachem) and its member units have all been completed and exceeded, with revenue increasing by 16% and profit increasing by 35% compared to the same period in 2024.
Stable growth
According to General Director of DAP Joint Stock Company No.2 - Vinachem Vu Viet Tien, in the past four months, the unit’s DAP fertilizer production reached 70.5 thousand tons; DAP consumption reached 80.8 thousand tons; industrial production value reached over 1.01 trillion VND; revenue of over 1.17 trillion, reaching about 41% of the yearly plan; Pre-tax profit reached 80.1 billion VND, reaching 117% of the annual plan.
The main consumption rates for basic production were controlled and lower than the planned rate. The level of technical staff and operating workers was gradually improved, and there were operational solutions to stabilise the technology in the condition of declining apatite ore quality to reduce the consumption rate.
Tien added that due to the high price of raw materials for production, the shortage of apatite ore, and the quality decreasing compared to the design, it would affect the production situation of the unit.
In addition, the implementation of the GYPS waste treatment project requires time, the investment capital of nearly 160 billion VND but can only be mobilised from production and business sources, which will certainly affect the enterprise.
To increase operational efficiency, the unit continues to seek solutions on technology and equipment to stabilise production, improve product quality, and reduce consumption rates.
At the same time, proactively repair and consolidate machinery and equipment, enhance training to improve the qualifications of operating workers, and encourage initiatives to improve and rationalise production.
In addition to strengthening the work of collecting information on price developments, market supply and demand to proactively develop plans, take the initiative in production costs to develop appropriate consumption and selling price policies, the company also implements solutions to maintain domestic market share, boost exports and increase the search for new customers and market share, Tien emphasised.
Market fluctuations, especially high commodity prices, transportation costs and new trade barriers are detrimental to production and business, but the company has actively implemented solutions to boost growth in the coming time.
DAP Joint Stock Company No. 2 - Vinachem strives to produce 60,000 tonnes of DAP fertilizer in the second quarter, industrial production value reaches 870 billion VND, and profit is more than 26 billion VND.
Similarly, General Director of Binh Dien Fertilizer Joint Stock Company Ngo Van Dong said that in the context of forecasting many fluctuations and disadvantages in the market, the unit aims to produce and consume 605,000 tonnes of fertilizer this year, while continuing to promote research and development of product lines with high nutritional content, suitable for the transformation of crop structure and the requirements of agriculture adapting to climate change.
In addition, continue to consolidate the domestic market and expand international markets such as Cambodia, Laos and the Philippines, etc.
Meeting consumption
General Director of Vinachem Nguyen Huu Tu said that in order to maintain the growth rate, the group has tried to organise production and business according to the set plan, in which the targets have all increased compared to the same period in 2024.
Specifically, the value of industrial production in the past three months reached more than 14.9 trillion VND, up 13%; revenue was more than 16.8 trillion VND, up 16%; profit reached 761 billion VND, up 35% over the same period in 2024; budget contribution was over 482 billion VND.
Also in the past three months, the total export value reached 133 million USD, up 16%; import reached 70 million USD, up 5% over the same period in 2024.
The Group has ensured jobs and stabilised the lives of more than 18,000 workers, with an average salary of about 13 million VND/person/month; thereby providing products for consumption and contributing to stabilizing and meeting the demand for fertilizers for agricultural production.
In the second quarter, the Group strives for production value at actual prices to reach over 15.7 trillion VND, accumulated in the first six months to nearly 30.7 trillion VND, up 11%; revenue to reach over 16.1 trillion VND, accumulated in the first six months to reach over 33 trillion VND, up 8%; profit of 668 billion VND, accumulated in six months reached 1.43 trillion VND, up 65% over the same period in 2024; total construction investment value reached 265 billion VND.
To achieve the above goal, Vinachem will focus on operating and promoting the implementation of production and business tasks at member units.
At the same time, effectively implement the campaign “Vietnamese people prioritise using Vietnamese goods” to promote the consumption of manufactured goods between Vinachem and domestic corporations and groups.
Units in the group strive to achieve an internal purchase and sale ratio of no less than 50% of the total purchase of the same type of materials, etc.
In addition, closely monitor market developments to proactively restructure operations, improve production and business efficiency. Especially focus on resources and solutions to increase product consumption output, expand markets, and build product strategies.
In addition to the efforts of enterprises, it is necessary to have the participation and support of ministries and functional branches such as having preferential tax policies for processing PG gypsum waste into raw materials for cement production additives, contributing to minimising the risk of environmental pollution; considering and reporting to the Prime Minister to allow adjusting the import tax on natural gypsum to 10%, speeding up the process of handling value-added tax refund procedures for exported goods to free up capital for production and business.
At the same time, attention should be paid to maintain defence measures for imported DAP and MAP fertilizer products to protect domestic production, ensure national food security and healthy market competition, etc.
This will create conditions for enterprises to invest, promote development, and soon achieve the goal of building a self-reliant economy, avoiding dependence on the outside, Tu emphasised.
