Though the domestic and global economy was heavily affected by Covid-19, Forbes  Vietnam gave positive comment that the companies listed on Vietnam’s Top 50 Brands in 2020 have a strong foundation and branding that plays a key role in the industry and create large revenue, so they are expected to continue creating leverage amidst the current challenging economy.

The Top 50 list is grouped into industries with most companies operating for more than 10 years, which is a sufficient time to make their reputation. Forbes Vietnam created the list using Forbes (USA)’s method to calculate a brand’s contribution to business performance. The most valuable brands are brands that achieve a large turnover in the industries where they play a leading role, and with products that have high coverage and awareness among consumers. Forbes Vietnam calculates pre-tax income and loan interest, then determines the value of intangible assets based on the company's financial statements. The final brand value is determined by the industry's regional average P/E ratio. For unlisted companies, Forbes compares them with companies of the same industries and have the same size to determine their brand value.

Listed on both Vietnam’s Top 50 Brands list (for the 2nd time) and Top 50 Listed Companies list (for the 5th time) by Forbes Vietnam, Nam Long continues to prove its reputation as one of the leading companies in the real estate industry. Despite the tough market conditions as a result of Covid-19 outbreak, Nam Long Group (HOSE: NLG) continued to record positive sales activities.
