INVESTOR RELATIONS

As a retail enterprise, MWG is fully aware of the environmental impact of plastic bags and continuously seeks optimal solutions to reduce and replace them with more eco-friendly packaging. In alignment with its sustainable development goals, MWG has implemented initiatives to manage and minimize plastic bag usage across its store chains, contributing to a greener consumption ecosystem and reducing environmental impact.

In 2022, MWG deployed an ERP system to effectively monitor plastic bag usage and set specific reduction targets for each store chain. To date, 100% of packaging used at Thế Giới Di Động and Điện Máy Xanh has transitioned to eco-friendly PP plastic bags—materials that can be collected and recycled. Meanwhile, Bách Hóa Xanh uses biodegradable plastic bags that naturally decompose in approximately six months. Additionally, Bách Hóa Xanh stores in Ho Chi Minh City have introduced reusable and environmentally friendly bags, encouraging customers to reduce their use of hard-to-decompose plastic and work toward eliminating single-use plastic waste.

By 2024, new retail chains such as Topzone and Thegioididong Luxury also transitioned to using paper bags, further contributing to the reduction of plastic waste. Bách Hóa Xanh launched the “Green Bag” initiative, carrying the message “Say no to plastic bags, join Bách Hóa Xanh in protecting the environment”. This program has been scaled across all Bách Hóa Xanh stores since July 2024. MWG also rolled out promotional campaigns offering fabric bags to promote sustainable consumption and raise community awareness about the harmful effects of single-use plastic, paving the way for a circular economy model in Vietnam.

In 2025, MWG continues to demonstrate its unwavering commitment by introducing new single-side, single-color printed packaging featuring environmental messages at Thế Giới Di Động and Điện Máy Xanh stores. This approach reduces the use of industrial ink, which poses potential health risks, while also lowering packaging production costs for the company.

MWG believes that with the support of the community and its customers, every small change made today will help shape a greener and more sustainable future for the generations to come.
