F&B 2025: A Breakthrough Opportunity for the FnB Industry Driven by Emerging Consumer Trends
Despite ongoing economic fluctuations, Vietnam’s F&B sector continues to demonstrate strong resilience with impressive post-pandemic recovery and remains one of the most attractive industries for investment. Both domestic and international brands are rapidly expanding, while consumer behaviors are shifting towards health-consciousness, digital experiences, and personalization.

From the perspective of a leading manufacturer providing essential ingredients to the F&B industry, Vagrico identifies several key trends shaping the market in 2025:

    The Rise of "Clean Eating and Drinking": Consumers are increasingly favoring natural, health-focused products such as sugar-free pastries, keto milk teas, and organic beverages. This trend demands higher quality ingredients and greater transparency throughout the production process.

    Gen Z as the Market Driver: The younger generation is emerging as a major consumer group, seeking novelty, convenience, and technology-driven experiences. F&B brands must stay agile to align with Gen Z’s dynamic preferences and trendsetting behavior.

    Digital Transformation as a Must: Technology is being deeply integrated across the F&B value chain—from omnichannel sales and online marketing to automation in operations and contactless payments. This requires ingredients to be adaptable and compatible with modern production models.

    Foreign Investment & Intensified Competition: Over 50% of franchise deals in the past decade have been in the F&B sector, positioning Vietnam as a key destination for international investors. Meanwhile, local brands are strengthening their competitiveness by upgrading ingredient sourcing, processing, packaging, and service quality.

As a strategic partner in the F&B supply chain, Vagrico is committed to supporting businesses with innovative and cost-efficient ingredient solutions. Our product lines — AU+ (inverted sugar syrup), Aumis (fruit syrups & fruit mix), and Hisun (ready-to-drink flavored beverages) — are designed to help businesses capture trends, enhance product value, and build sustainable competitive advantages in 2025 and beyond.
