History of the Vietnam Beer Market

The production of beer production in Vietnam dates to the French colonial period, with the establishment of Bia Hue in the early 20th century. The Vietnam War had a substantial influence on the beer industry, but after the war ended in the mid-1970s, the government took steps to modernize the industry. In the 2000s, the government privatized some state-owned breweries allowing them to operate more independently and expand their product portfolios. In the late 20th century and early 21st century, foreign beer companies like Heineken and Carlsberg entered the Vietnam market, leading to intense competition and the introduction of international beer brands.
