Hoa Sen Group (HSG) set an after-tax profit target of VND1.5-2.5 trillion (US$65.8-110 million) for the financial year 2021-22, depending on input material price movements, the pandemic situation and energy prices.
The business plan was approved at its shareholder meeting held in HCM City on Tuesday.
Accordingly, HSG targeted sales of 2 million tonnes and revenue of VND46.3 trillion in the financial year (from October 1, 2021, to September 30, 2022).
This year, the group said the economy would see unpredictable changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic and global political conflict, which would affect business operations.
In the first quarter of its financial year, its steel sales reached 604,518 tonnes, meeting 30 per cent of the whole year’s set target.

This unit will be in charge of all business activities of distribution, retail and supermarket chain of Hoa Sen Home.
After the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the face of changes in consumer demand, HSG has adjusted its medium and long-term development strategy in production, business activities and project investment.
Accordingly, they have focused their resources on promoting the traditional business and production segments, including corrugated iron, steel and plastic. It also has diversified products and developed the Hoa Sen Home supermarket chain.
HSG brought nearly 90 Hoa Sen Home supermarkets into operation by the end of March, taking advantage of its retail and distribution system nationwide.

It has also promoted exports to make a great contribution to its business results for the year 2020-21,” it said.
