Sugar output in Vietnam had reached 1.53 million tonnes in the 2012-13 crop. With 178,000 tonnes in stock since the beginning crop and 70,000 tonnes imported under Viet Nam's World Trade Organisation commitments, the country has a total supply of 1.78 million tonnes.
Bien Hoa (A major sugar producer in Vietnam) invested about 100 billion dong ($4.8 million) in its plant in TayNinh province to boost its capacity to 4,000 tons of sugar cane a day in the 2011-2012 crop year, from 3,500 tons previously. It will invest 60 billion dong in 2013 to increase its capacity to 4,500 tons a day and upgrade equipment to produce refined sugar from the next cane crop. Vietnam will strive to raise its sugar output in the 2015/2016 cane crushing season by nearly 10 percent to 1.56 million tonnes, rebounding from a fall this year due to lower supply.

Lam Son Sugar Joint Stock Corporation, or Lasuco, is the leading sugar producer in Vietnam, and is also one of the leaders in that country's slow shift toward a market-driven economy. Lasuco operates two sugar refineries, with a total capacity of nearly 6,500 tons per day, or 100,000 tons per year. In addition to its two sugar refineries, Lasuco operates two alcohol production facilities, the first manufacturing 1.5 million liters of molasses-based alcohol per year, and the second with a capacity of 25 million liters per year for the export market.
