Following successful collaborations with Ecopark on projects like Ecopark Sky Residences, Swan Lake Onsen, and Eco Central Park Vinh, Coteccons was given the keys to the Eco Retreat Long An project. They're also busy working on new projects for Sun Group, as well as collaborating with new clients on The Global City and Masteri Lakeside by Masterise Homes, and Ray River Resort by Ray River Estates.
Beyond their core construction business, Coteccons has branched out into infrastructure and public investment projects, such as the Long Thành International Airport phase 1 (parking facility) and a National University HCMC subproject.
In Q3, Coteccons brought in over VNĐ5 trillion ($192.4 million) in consolidated revenues, marking a 7.2% year-on-year increase. Thanks to accelerated project delivery and increased construction activity, they reported a net profit of VNĐ57 billion.
