Holding the core leading role through the years, bringing Imexpharm from a small factory in the unnoticeable province of Dong Thap to an enterprise within Top 5 leading Pharmaceutical organisations in Vietnam, each event, each milestone all bears the efforts of The People’s Doctor, Pharmacist Tran Thi Dao. From the arduous trip to the wholesale market of District 10 (HCMC) in the 1980s to find the right path for the Company, to the journey to European lands to find cooperation partners for production franchising, and also the equitization in 2001, making Imexpharm into the first enterprise within Vietnam General Pharmaceutical Corporation to successfully switch its model. All of these are the footsteps of a pioneer, highly difficult, but also a display of a leader’s strength.
“As a leader, I always have to be decisive, because I understand that opportunities are always present but time waits for no man”, this line still has its value to this day and is proven by several actual results. One can say the current prosperity and stable development of Imexpharm – the legacy that the “golden generation” legates for the inheriting generation – have the vastly significant contribution of The People’s Doctor. Closing the 2018 – 2022 term with many noticeable achievements considered to be the base for a new journey, Imexpharm will continue to witness the upcoming changes and breakthroughs, and will still firmly
believe in her brilliant leadership.
