ABN Asia Joins Industry Leaders to Advance Vietnam's Twin Transition in the Cocoa Industry

Vietnam — ABN Asia was proud to stand alongside Trong Duc Cocoa, Helvetas, GIZ, Japanese partners, government representatives, cocoa farmers, researchers, and more than 600 participants at a landmark gathering to shape the future of Vietnam's cocoa industry.

The event brought together key stakeholders from across the cocoa value chain to discuss a shared vision and strategic roadmap for the next 20 years. At the heart of the discussions was the Twin Transition—the integration of Digital Transformation and Green Transformation—as the foundation for building a more resilient, competitive, and sustainable cocoa industry.

ABN Asia was honoured to participate as a key technology partner, contributing its expertise in AI and digital innovation to support this long-term vision.

Through its GreenOS platform, ABN Asia enables organisations to accelerate both sides of the Twin Transition. GreenOS combines digital operations, end-to-end traceability, ESG reporting, certification management, compliance monitoring, AI-powered analytics, and workflow automation into a single platform. This helps enterprises operate smarter, greener, more compliant, and higher up the global value chain.

Digital Transformation equips businesses with real-time data, intelligent decision-making, and connected supply chains. Green Transformation ensures that growth is sustainable through regenerative agriculture, responsible sourcing, carbon awareness, environmental stewardship, and compliance with evolving international standards such as EUDR and ESG requirements. Together, these two transformations reinforce one another, creating stronger businesses and more sustainable agricultural ecosystems.

As global markets increasingly demand transparency and sustainability, the Twin Transition is no longer optional—it is becoming a competitive advantage. By integrating technology with sustainability, Vietnam's cocoa industry has the opportunity to strengthen farmer livelihoods, increase product value, and expand its presence in premium international markets.

"We are proud to stand alongside Trong Duc, Helvetas, GIZ, and our international partners in shaping the future of Vietnam's cocoa industry," said ABN Asia. "The Twin Transition is about more than adopting new technologies or meeting sustainability targets—it is about transforming the way agricultural value chains operate. Through GreenOS, we are helping organisations embrace both Digital Transformation and Green Transformation to build a smarter, greener, and more resilient future."

The gathering reflected a shared commitment to collaboration, innovation, and long-term impact. Together, the participants laid the foundation for a 20-year vision in which Vietnam's cocoa industry can become a global model for sustainable, digitally enabled agriculture.
