Vu Dang Vinh, CEO of Vietnam Report, highlighted key trends from the 2024 list, noting that while industry and construction remain vital economic drivers, there was a slight 0.7% decrease in total revenue across these sectors. In contrast, the service and financial sectors experienced impressive annual growth rates of 13.7% and 23.1%, respectively. However, the agro-forestry-fisheries sector faced challenges, suffering a 7.8% drop in total revenue due to a lack of new orders in 2023./.
