The conference on praising outstanding taxpayers for the 2020–2022 period was organized by the Ministry of Finance and the General Department of Taxation to honour businesses with great contributions to budget revenue amid global economic challenges during the Covid-19 pandemic.
SABECO passed rigid evaluation criteria for good tax compliance and significant contributions to the state budget. According to the General Department of Taxation, SABECO contributed more than VND11 trillion to the state budget between 2020–2022, making it one of the highest budget contributors in the group of beverage manufacturers.
At the conference, Minister of Finance Ho Duc Phoc appreciated SABECO and other businesses for their positive contributions to the state budget during the 2020–2022 period, especially their realistic, effective, and timely support in preventing the spread of the pandemic, contributing to the socio-economic development.
With the motto of business development coupled with sustainability, during the pandemic, SABECO joined hands with the Vietnamese Government to support workers, employees, and small businesses affected by COVID-19, while at the same time providing medical equipment for front-line medical forces through campaigns such as 'Rise with Vietnam', 'Community Care', and 'Collecting a Million Star' in 2020 and 2021.
