In addition, Bibica also deployed Material Flow Cost Accounting (MFCA) at its factories to reduce production costs from 1.7 per cent in 2015 to 1.6 per cent in 2016 and successfully developed "shop key "solutions, exceeding 34 per cent of the sales growth over the same period.
In 2016, Bibica hit revenue of VND1.26 trillion, up 7.8 per cent against the same period last year, and exceeded 1 per cent of the target. Moreover, the firm’s after-tax profit reached over VND81.2 billion (exceeding 24.8 per cent of the plan).
