Gemadept continues to be honored among the Top 3 Best Sustainability Reports in the non-financial sector, reinforcing its position as a pioneer in transparency and ESG within the listed market – 2025 Listed Company Awards.
Maintaining its leading position among non-financial enterprises, Gemadept Corporation (GMD – HOSE) was recently named in the Top 3 Best Sustainability Reports at the 2025 Vietnam Listed Company Awards. The award, jointly organized by the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange (HOSE), the Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX), and Securities Investment Newspaper, recognizes businesses for their transparent, standardized reporting and their positive contributions to the sustainable development ecosystem.
The evaluation process spanned nearly six months, with over 500 listed companies undergoing rigorous review across three main categories: Annual Reports, Corporate Governance, and Sustainability Reports. In the non-financial sector, a highly competitive category, Gemadept outperformed numerous strong contenders to secure a place in the Top 3, once again affirming its transparent governance and long-term vision.
This year, the Organizing Committee implemented an increasingly stringent set of evaluation criteria. Beyond reviewing the completeness, reliability, and transparency of information, the Judging Panel also assessed how businesses presented data in accordance with international reporting standards such as GRI, IFRS S1 & S2, and SASB. This shift compels enterprises to demonstrate their ESG commitments through substantive action rather than mere formalities.
For Gemadept, information transparency is not just a compliance requirement, but a core governance culture maintained over many years. The Company’s independent audited financial statements, annual reports, and sustainability reports are meticulously prepared with fully verified data. This dedication previously earned Gemadept consecutive honors for ‘Best Report’ in 2023 and 2024, building the foundation for this year’s Top 3 achievement.
In addition to regular disclosures, Gemadept proactively engages with investors and stakeholders through the press, its website, social media, forums, and industry conferences. The Company provides frequent updates on project milestones, the expansion of its port and logistics network, and its ESG initiatives, ensuring that investors have a comprehensive view of its strategy and long-term trajectory.
Notably, Gemadept is a pioneer in adopting international standards for environmental and social management within the port and logistics sector. The Company has implemented the Green Port Standards of the Vietnam Maritime Administration (TCCS:2018 CHHVN), alongside the ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System and the ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health and Safety Management System. Furthermore, Gemadept conducts greenhouse gas inventories in accordance with the ISO 14064-1:2018 standard. These represent critical steps in the Company’s decarbonization roadmap and its transition toward green operations.
For Gemadept, creating and maintaining the trust of shareholders and the community is not merely a choice, but a mission on the journey toward a sustainable future. A proactive spirit and a culture of overcoming obstacles have enabled the Company to continuously adapt to market fluctuations while maintaining its growth momentum and expanding its network. Concurrently, Gemadept remains committed to enhancing its contributions to the community and the socio-economy, striving for a growth model that harmonizes profitability with corporate responsibility.
