What Luks Group (Vietnam Holdings) does
Luks Group (Vietnam Holdings) Company Limited is a Hong Kong-listed (SEHK: 00366.HK), Bermuda-domiciled holding company founded in 1975 that operates a diversified infrastructure-and-property portfolio concentrated in Vietnam, with residual exposure in Hong Kong and the PRC. Over 95% of group revenue and ~75% of non-current assets are located in Vietnam, where the company runs three principal segments: cement manufacturing under the KIM DINH brand via 100%-owned Luks Cement (Vietnam) Limited at a 2.8 million-tonne-per-annum plant in Hue Province; property investment anchored by the wholly owned Saigon Trade Centre, a 33-storey Grade B office building in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City; and property development through the 85%-owned Thanh Phat joint venture (22,000 sqm in Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City) and the smaller Hue Square project.
Cement products span PCB30, PC40, and high-density grades for specialized applications such as jetties and tunnels, sold directly to major Vietnamese infrastructure projects (Hai Van Pass Tunnel, Dung Quat Oil Refineries, central highways, hydro-electric stations) and through a local dealer network for retail demand. The Hue plant holds ISO 9001/14001/18001 certifications — claimed to be the only cement plant in Vietnam to simultaneously hold all three — and secured a new seven-year Environmental License (No. 269/GPMT-BNNMT, valid to 15 July 2032), with continuous emissions monitoring via CEMS and an upgraded urea spraying system; a Waste Heat Recovery power generation system is in preparation with three consultants engaged in 2025. The hotel segment comprises the 298-room Pentahotel Hong Kong Tuen Mun (managed by Penta Hotels Asia Pacific since July 2017, 86.98% occupancy in 2025, GOP up 19.6% YoY) and the newly opened Le Carré Hue in Vietnam (full operations from Q4 2025), with a small legacy printed-circuit-board trading business rounding out the portfolio.
FY2025 group turnover was HK$344.186M (cement HK$128.3M, property investment HK$139.2M, hotel operations HK$65.7M), with cement external sales down ~16.8% and property investment down ~4.7% YoY; consolidated profit after tax was HK$16.649M and total assets stood at HK$2,604M as of 31 December 2025. The group is family-controlled: co-founder Madam Cheng Cheung served as Chairman for over 48 years until her 13 December 2025 passing, after which her daughter Ms. Luk Sze Wan was appointed Chairman effective 8 January 2026; her sons Luk Yan and Luk Fung continue as Co-CEOs responsible respectively for Vietnam property and cement operations. Distribution is direct-to-enterprise across all three segments, with cement additionally routed through a local dealer network for retail demand.
