Carlsberg Vietnam

Carlsberg Group in Vietnam

Carlsberg was the first large Danish multi-national to enter Vietnam in 1993. For the first 20 years, Carlsberg’s JV partners managed its Vietnamese holdings under Carlsberg Indochina. In 2012, a fully dedicated Carlsberg management team was established and consolidated operations into a single unit with two legal entities (Carlsberg Vietnam Trading and Carlsberg Vietnam Breweries).

Carlsberg Vietnam produces and markets Carlsberg, Tuborg, Huda, Huda Gold, Huda Ice Blast, Halida and 1664 Blanc.

Did you know that...?

  • The Halida brand name was created as an abbreviation of Hanoi, Lien Doanh (which means joint venture in Vietnamese) and Danmach (Denmark in Vietnamese). Many beer brands contain the letters DA, which usually relate to the use of Danish brewing technology and equipment.
