PETROLIMEX BENTRE CO., LTD

Petrolimex Bentre Co., Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary within the Petrolimex system, operating as a regional distributor of petroleum products in Ben Tre Province. Established in 2010, the company plays an important role in ensuring the supply of fuel across retail outlets, industrial customers, and transportation networks in the Mekong Delta region. With a workforce of 240 employees, Petrolimex Bentre manages multiple retail stores, fuel distribution points, and transport capacity, supporting a steady flow of petroleum products throughout its operating area.

The company is part of the Vietnam National Petroleum Group, the country’s dominant petroleum enterprise. A particularly notable aspect of Petrolimex Bentre is its ability to maintain operational consistency and sales scale even during periods of lower fuel consumption, reflecting both the resilience of its distribution network and the essential nature of fuel demand in the region.

Leadership and Shareholders

The company is led by Pham V. T., Director and Legal Representative, who oversees sales operations, compliance, distribution infrastructure, and the coordination of fuel supply within the Petrolimex national network. His leadership reflects the strategic responsibilities delegated by the parent group.

Petrolimex Bentre is wholly owned by Vietnam National Petroleum Group (Petrolimex), which holds 100 percent of equity. This ownership structure ensures stable capital backing, unified governance, and centralized sourcing advantages across the entire value chain.

Financial Growth and Market Risks

In 2023, the company achieved revenue of USD 78.84 million, although sales declined compared to the prior year in line with broader adjustments in fuel consumption and pricing. Profit improved modestly despite tighter margins and higher operating costs. Working capital remained negative, reflecting the financing structure typical of petroleum distributors that rely on large volumes, fast turnover, and high inventory costs.

The company faces sector specific risks including fuel price volatility, shifts in domestic consumption, regulatory adjustments, and margin sensitivity tied to global oil movements. Liquidity management remains a central challenge for petroleum wholesalers due to rapid pricing cycles and capital intensive inventory requirements. Full insights into solvency, cash flow, credit behavior, and long term risk exposure are available in the VNBIS Company Comprehensive Report.

Business Intelligence and Risk Outlook

Petroleum distribution remains a foundational element of economic activity in the Mekong Delta, and Petrolimex Bentre is positioned as one of the core suppliers in Ben Tre Province. Short term performance will depend on fuel price stability, retail volume trends, and the pace of recovery in industry and transportation sectors. Over the long term, competitive strength will hinge on operational efficiency, infrastructure modernization, and the ability to adapt to emerging energy trends.

Given its integration within the national Petrolimex system, the company benefits from strong supply chain coordination, standardized quality controls, and access to national level procurement advantages.
