From Humble Beginnings…
Established in 2017 under the name Kiến Long Real Estate, KLC Group started with a dream of creating lasting value for the community. In a fiercely competitive real estate market, KLC took a different path – developing a multi-industry ecosystem to meet the evolving needs of society. The early days were filled with challenges: limited capital, little experience, and immense pressure. But with courage and a can-do attitude, a small but determined team laid the foundation for KLC’s remarkable rise.
From property marketing and distribution, KLC earned its reputation and gained customer trust, fueling its expansion into finance, F&B, hospitality, media and corporate events, import-export, agriculture, property management, technology, and education.
Innovation-Fueled Diversification
In real estate, Stareal, a subsidiary of KLC Group, has collaborated with renowned developers like Masterise Homes, Phú Long, Đất Xanh, and Khang Điền to bring high-quality housing to Ho Chi Minh City – contributing to urban modernization and improved living standards. Beyond being a distributor, Stareal is now building its land portfolio and setting sights on becoming an official developer by 2026, with an IPO target set for 2027.
In finance, Viet Long Capital made headlines in 2024 with several successful M&A deals, delivering exceptional investment value. The firm is preparing to enter investment funds in Singapore and Australia, strengthening KLC’s global financial footprint.
In the F&B and hospitality sector, KLC Hospitality has introduced the spirit of Southern Vietnam through its signature Mùa Nước Nổi restaurant chain, now preparing to expand to the U.S. and Australia. The Group also operates KLC Holidays Phu Quoc, offering friendly, immersive vacation experiences that promote Vietnam’s tourism to the world.
In media, KLC Media is carving a niche with three core pillars: corporate event production, booth design, and video creation. By partnering with universities and local organizations, the company enhances its strategic communications capabilities, embracing multi-platform campaigns that reach businesses, government agencies, and educational institutions. The goal: build a comprehensive digital media ecosystem ready for the future.
KLC’s import-export arm has made significant strides, successfully shipping agricultural goods and food to Germany and the Czech Republic. The establishment of KLC Phénix Sas in France further expands brand visibility while strengthening EU-Vietnam business cooperation.
Simultaneously, the Group continues to grow its ecosystem in the U.S. and Australia with entities like KLC USA Holding, KLC AusAsia, KLC Real Estate, and KLC Capital Partners, enhancing its international presence and placing the Vietnamese brand firmly on the global economic map.
KLC Group has earned prestigious awards such as Top 10 ASEAN Brands 2023 and Asia’s Top Trusted Brand Awards 2024, validating the Group’s commitment to product and service excellence both domestically and internationally.
People at the Core, Culture as the Foundation
At the heart of KLC Group’s success is its passionate, resilient team. From day one, the Group has cultivated a people-first culture, encouraging bold thinking and the courage to break limits. This mindset has propelled KLC forward, enabling innovation and agility in a fast-changing market.
As Deputy CEO Ms. Đặng Thị Hương Giang once said, “Our success is the result of collective effort and relentless determination.” Indeed, every milestone achieved in the past eight years bears the imprint of a unified and driven team—committed to continuous growth.
KLC also prioritizes employee well-being through activities like team building, the KLC Olympic Sports Day, and regular training programs. With stable income policies and a supportive environment, the company has been honored with the Best Workplace Environment – ASEAN Top Brands Award 2023.
Business with a Social Conscience
For KLC, success is not measured solely by financial results—but also by the positive impact it brings to the community. A spirit of giving runs deep within the organization.
In 2023, KLC was recognized by the Tax Department of District 7 – Nhà Bè for its outstanding contributions to national revenue. The Group also actively supports educational and social causes: scholarships for underprivileged students, partnerships with universities like HUTECH, and investment in youth development.
KLC Group remains committed to expanding its community impact, strengthening education, and nurturing culture. Future initiatives include more charitable programs, scholarship funds, and youth-focused projects—all aiming to build a better tomorrow for both the company and the wider community.
Eight years is a meaningful chapter enough to reflect, to celebrate, and to reaffirm our purpose. KLC Group has boldly embraced every challenge, guided by the drive to shine brighter.
With a solid foundation, strategic vision, and a passionate team, KLC Group believes that its journey to “Flash Up the East” has only just begun. The goal: to affirm Vietnam’s pride on the global stage in this era of integration.
