Organized by the Embassy of Denmark in Vietnam in partnership with the People’s Committee of Da Nang City, the event was part of activities celebrating the 55th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Denmark. Held from June 20–22 at APEC Park and along the Han River waterfront, the initiative brought together government representatives, businesses, communities and citizens to explore ideas around sustainable urban development, green mobility and quality of life.
As a Danish company that has proudly been part of Vietnam for more than 30 years, Carlsberg Vietnam was pleased to join the Embassy of Denmark and local authorities in supporting a shared vision of greener, healthier and more livable communities. With Da Nang playing an important role in the company's journey in Central Vietnam, Carlsberg Vietnam remains committed to contributing to the city's sustainable development through initiatives that create lasting value for both people and the environment.
Leading by example, the company's leadership team joined employees and community members in promoting greener mobility.
Riding together for a more sustainable future
One of the highlights of the event was the strong participation of Carlsberg Vietnam employees alongside the company’s leadership team.
Cycling together with representatives from the Embassy of Denmark, local authorities and community members, participants experienced first-hand how simple everyday choices can contribute to cleaner cities, healthier lifestyles and more sustainable communities. The event also featured the exhibition "Livable Cities – Bicycle Cities", showcasing examples of how urban planning and mobility solutions can help create more people-centered and environmentally friendly cities.
"Da Nang is one of Vietnam’s most dynamic and forward-looking cities, and we are pleased to support initiatives that encourage more sustainable ways of living," said Andrew Khan, Managing Director of Carlsberg Vietnam.
"At Carlsberg Vietnam, we believe that creating a better tomorrow starts with people. Whether in our breweries, our communities or our everyday lives, progress is made when individuals choose to take action. Seeing so many colleagues come together for this event is a powerful reminder that sustainability is not just about what we aim to achieve in the future, but about what we choose to do today," he added.
Carlsberg Vietnam leaders and the Ambassador of Denmark to Vietnam cycled together to mark 55 years of Vietnam–Denmark relations.
The cycling event builds on a series of sustainability and community initiatives undertaken by Carlsberg Vietnam under Brewing Tomorrow – Carlsberg Group’s sustainability program, which is guided by four ambitions: cutting carbon, protecting nature, inspiring choices and empowering people.
Earlier this year, more than 150 employees, leaders, family members and partners joined the company’s World Environment Day program in Da Nang, taking part in a coastal clean-up activity that collected more than 1.3 tons of waste. Together, these initiatives demonstrate how collective action can help create meaningful impact within local communities.
