Vietnam Convenience Food Market Trends and Drivers:

The Vietnamese market has been undergoing rapid growth in health-focused convenience foods, motivated by the pandemic and increasing health awareness, as well as intensified disposable incomes. Alongside products containing lower sugar, sodium, and preservatives, the market is seeing growth with functional foods that provide additional protein, vitamins, or probiotics. There is a new wave of premium chilled ready meals that justifies the growing market, containing fresher, high-quality, and authentically Vietnamese and Asian cuisines. Domestic brands are rapidly innovating in this area and are adapting quickly to local tastes, frequently outpacing global brands. Additionally, there is a slight increase in demand for vegetarian and plant-based convenience foods, demonstrating a concern for public health and the environment among urban populations. Initiatives to alter health perceptions of the food require further investment towards optimizing the taste, texture, and nutritional value of the products to encourage a wider health-focused market. Supermarkets tend to these products by placing them in more visible areas, as well as the chilled section, due to the margin and strong market demand.

Growth is no longer limited to large cities such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. A vital factor is the rapid expansion of modern trade formats, such as mini-supermarkets, VinMart+, and Bach Hoa Xanh, as well as convenience store chains like Circle K, GS25, and 7 Eleven into tier 2 and 3 cities and provinces. This shift is fundamentally expanding product accessibility for millions of new consumers. At the same time, there is a massive overhaul of cold chain logistics and distribution systems. Improvements in the refrigerated transport, warehousing, and last-mile delivery systems are critical to supporting the convenience segment of chilled and frozen products, reducing spoilage, and ensuring that product quality is preserved to consumers. The growing e-commerce channel also enhances this accessibility as companies such as Shopee, Grab, and dedicated grocery applications provide a wide range of shelf-stable, chilled and frozen convenience foods with faster delivery times. The combination of better infrastructure and this multi-channel expansion is meeting significant previously unmet demand throughout different regions and populations, transforming convenience foods into a daily staple for a far greater number of people.

The competitive landscape of Vietnamese convenience food is now getting heated due to the influx of foreign businesses and new local companies. While MNCs are starting to adapt to the local ways of doing business and are still using their global brands and research to R&D, they are now faced with the pressures of “hyper-localizing” product lines. Instead of just pulling global SKUs, versatility in regions of Vietnam is what will determine success in crafting appropriate and affordable flavors and formats that resonate with the population’s tastes and attitudes towards food intake. On the other end, local brands are enhancing local and traditional foods like instant noodles, snacks, and ready meals with competitive quality and authentic taste profiles, which has forced foreign brands to change their strategic focus. There is rampant product innovation, including fusion flavors and single-serve premium snacks and meals. There is also healthy food, but quick and easy to eat. and frozen meals that are of restaurant quality. It's not just about the product anymore, instead adding to the competition scope is sustainability related packaging convenience, portable eco-friendly design, marketing and pricing, and multifaceted strategies. Desperate times truly require desperate measures as brands are being faced with the important challenge of distinguishing themselves and connecting with the customers in order to maintain profit in this fast-paced world.
