The ranking criteria for the Top 10 Contractors are based on the total construction value of projects that commenced between January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2024, with weighting applied to projects registered for green building certification.

 

The continued presence of both Coteccons and Unicons in the Top 10 underscores Coteccons’ commitment to becoming an industry leader, while highlighting the group’s robust construction capabilities and long-term pursuit of sustainable development standards.

Coteccons’ and Unicons’ project portfolio speaks for itself. Coteccons is behind major developments such as the Pandora Factory, Suntory PepsiCo Factory, Hòa Phát’s Dung Quất 2 megaproject, and Sun Urban City. Meanwhile, Unicons is constructing the Apache Shoe Factory, Hanh Phuc Hospital, PepsiCo Foods Factory, and Tien Bo Plaza. All these projects follow a “green transition” trend – with notable highlights like the Pandora Factory, which is 100% powered by renewable energy and built to LEED Gold standards.

Coteccons’ Pandora Production Vietnam factory was constructed to meet LEED Gold green building standards – a globally recognized certification – and operates entirely on 100% renewable energy.
Hanh Phuc Hospital was designed under the “Hospital Without Walls” model, comprising three integrated components: a smart hospital, satellite clinics, and home-care teams connected via telehealth systems.

Speaking about Coteccons and Unicons being recognized among Top 10 Contractors in Vietnam 2025, Mr. Bolat Duisenov, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Coteccons, stated: “Coteccons and Unicons share a unified set of values. We approach every project with a sense of responsibility, strive for the highest industry standards, and always put people at the heart of our decisions. We are honored to be recognized at an awards ceremony that celebrates ‘Industry Leaders  ‘ in architecture and construction.

As Vietnam’s leading general contractor, Coteccons plays a central role—a catalyst and connector—in building a more sustainable industry. We are committed to working together with our partners—clients, subcontractors, engineers, and workers—to create a safer, more meaningful, and more comfortable construction ecosystem.

“Being an Industry Leader means not only excelling in what we do but also raising industry standards, shaping mindsets, and inspiring action across the construction ecosystem,” Mr. Bolat emphasized.

Unicons is proud to be entrusted by the Investor with the role of General Contractor for the structural, façade, and infrastructure works of the Tien Bo Plaza project.
This dual recognition affirms Coteccons’ and Unicons’ outstanding reputation and execution capabilities, as well as Coteccons’ self-imposed standards – from technical excellence and safety compliance to unwavering commitment to sustainability.
