The Vietnam Franchise Export Index

GO GLOBAL 100

The annual, scored index of Vietnam's most export-ready franchise brands — verified by WFA × Go Global and syndicated to qualified investors in 120+ countries. Not a popularity list: a readiness standard.

Why it exists

Vietnam's brands are going global. Nobody measures who is ready.

Vietnamese coffee, tea, F&B and service brands are signing master franchise deals from India to the Gulf. Yet no index anywhere — not in Vietnam, not in Asia — ranks outbound franchise readiness. GO GLOBAL 100 fills that gap: one transparent scorecard that tells investors which Vietnamese brands are prepared, and tells brands exactly what to fix.

Being listed is free. Being ranked is earned.
