For 2023, the ASG Corporation’s leadership anticipates a challenging year given the global and Vietnamese markets continue to be influenced by the impact of Russia-Ukraine war, unpredictable fuel price fluctuations, signs of economic recession leading to reduced consumer demand, and the contraction of the market size and production capacity, which directly affects the flow of goods and has a negative impact on ASG’s Logistics. From a positive perspective, the business operations in ASG’s Aviation are projected to experience growth due to the recovery of aviation and tourism. However, there are still concerns regarding the growth rate of the international tourism market.
Therefore, ASG Corporation’s business plan for 2023 reflects its efforts and caution in the face of unpredictable market movements, not only flexibly responding to the decline in production and consumption, but also optimally improving the operational efficiency of all business fields and member companies within the system. At the same time, it aims to strengthen the research and development of new products and services and seek out and access effective capital sources for business and investment expansion.
During the discussion and Q&A session with shareholders, the company’s leadership has openly and directly shared about the long-term growth motivation, critical projects, strategies, and specific actions to adapt and seize opportunities arising from the green production trend, environmental protection, and accessing appropriate sources of financing.
