Record announcement for the “Largest Banh mi of Vietnam"

Vietnamese bread “Banh mi” is thought to have evolved from the French Baguette brought to Saigon by the French in the late 1800s. Some say also that Banh mi was already available in Vietnam 150 years ago. Vietnamese people later transformed this basic baguette into a smaller and shorter piece of bread with a hollower centre to accommodate a variety of fillings.

In order to accomplish this objective, the most proficient team of bread artisans within the LESAFFRE Group, which oversees SAF-VIET, has diligently executed every step of the process, ranging from the meticulous selection of raw dough to the precise techniques employed in shaping and processing. These measures have been taken to guarantee the preservation of food hygiene and safety, as well as to adhere to the traditional style of baking in an oven. Saf Viet and the top-tier Vietnamese and international producers have worked tirelessly to back the bakery's crew.

Officials from all levels of government, municipal representatives, long-term clients, partners, and workers of SAF Viet were present for the September 28, 2023 Record Announcement Program.

This successful event does not only serve as a significant milestone for SAF-VIET as it strives to continuously improve its baking expertise, but it also helps spread awareness of the unique culinary qualities of "Banh Mi" and Vietnamese food to a wide audience.
