# The 50 largest retail chains in Vietnam

Tamtam tracks 105 retail chains headquartered in Vietnam. This list ranks the 50 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Esselunga, Techcombank (TCB) and Viettel Group. Their median headcount is 1,031. Half of them were founded in 1996 or later. The most common headquarters are Ho Chi Minh City (27) and Hanoi (10).

This selection of companies in Vietnam is dominated by the financial sector, with numerous large banking groups. Key players include Techcombank, focused on digital transformation; BIDV, a major bank with an international presence; Vietcombank, a leading state-owned commercial bank; and ACB - Asia Commercial Bank, known for its wide branch network. Beyond banking, there are also significant retail and technology firms.

A notable pattern among these companies is their strong presence in Vietnam's two largest cities. Most headquarters are located in either Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, indicating these urban centers as primary hubs for large-scale corporate operations in the country. Esselunga, an Italian supermarket chain, is an outlier in this geographically concentrated group.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
