Businessman Dang Xuan Hue, Chairman CEO of Quang Binh Imexco is honored with the “Outstanding Entrepreneur” title awarded by VCCI

The story about businessman Dang Xuan Hue who used all his family's fortune to save his company on the verge of bankruptcy is familiar to the business community of Quang Binh province. He said, “I became Chairman of the Board of Directors of Quang Binh Import-Export Joint Stock Company when it incurred a huge debt of over VND40 billion. All key employees had left the company. In such a situation, I always keep in mind that the great responsibility and noble mission of a true businessman is to shoulder responsibility. I put all what my family and I had to secure and pay off bank loans and save the company.” This was an extremely daring and risky decision. Fortunately, with the support of his family, the trust of all colleagues, and above all the bravery and decisiveness of the new chairman, the company made a miraculous comeback. Quang Binh Imexco has become an industry leader and an outstanding business of Quang Binh province.

After the company went public, he transformed the multisector production model to the mining business in the spirit of placing national interests above all, moving toward sustainable development and aligning with environmental protection. Entrepreneur Dang Xuan Hue is also among the first people to apply the KPI-based business management model in 2011 when the concept of KPI remained new to many people.

The company regularly helps repair and upgrade roads for local people, takes part in activities for the poor and disabled people, finances gratitude funds and supports other social charity. He also actively supports and shares experiences with businesses that are facing difficulties, and inspires entrepreneurship and business culture to younger generations.
