HCM CITY — The Việt Nam Vegetable Oils Industry Corporation (Vocarimex) has seen a significant improvement in performance in the one year since it was acquired by giant food producer KIDO Group.

It reported that in the first half of this year revenues increased by over 6 per cent year-on-year to VNĐ2.1 trillion (US$92.1 million).

Profit before tax was VNĐ138 billion ($6 million), representing 46 per cent of the year’s profit target.
