What we Do
At CGVC we focus on the Food and Tourism sectors. This exclusive focus is built on two of the economic powerhouses of the Vietnam economy and the Mekong Delta region. Our focus centres on:
Interconnectedness
The food and tourism sectors are deeply intertwined; tourism often drives demand for local food products, while food experiences can enhance the attractiveness of a destination.
Sustainability Focus
Both sectors increasingly prioritise sustainability and ethical practices. At CGVC we can provide value chain analysis that promotes sustainable sourcing, production, and consumption, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers and businesses.
Market Growth Potential
Food and tourism are significant contributors to the Mekong Delta economies, with strong growth potential. By focusing on these sectors, CGVC can capitalise on expanding markets and evolving consumer preferences.
Cultural Relevance
Food and tourism often reflect cultural identity and heritage. CGVC helps clients enhance their brand narratives by connecting with consumers on a deeper level, fostering loyalty and engagement.
Good Governance
Both sectors face stringent regulations regarding food safety and tourism standards. We help our clients navigate these complexities, ensuring compliance while optimising value chains.
