At the invitation of SUMOU & BUNA Group, Mr. Tran Quang Tuan, Chairman and CEO of CENTRAL Construction Joint Stock Company, recently embarked on a high-level business trip to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. CENTRAL is currently serving as the main contractor for critical construction packages of the Sumou Towers project—a mixed-use development featuring twin towers rising 71 stories, located along the shores of the Red Sea.
This visit marks a significant follow-up to the 2024 delegation to Vietnam by SUMOU & BUNA Group’s executive leadership, which concluded with strong praise for CENTRAL’s capabilities. The trip provided Chairman and CEO of CENTRAL the opportunity to meet directly with Dr. Ayedh Farhan Al-Qahtani, Chairman of SUMOU & BUNA Group, as well as senior management, to assess construction progress, review quality standards, and explore further long-term collaboration.
Built upon an increasingly solid partnership, the discussions have opened up new strategic opportunities for CENTRAL in the Middle East—particularly in alignment with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 roadmap and the country’s preparations for hosting the 2034 FIFA World Cup.
With a pioneering mindset, strong support from international partners, and an unwavering commitment to surpassing construction standards, CENTRAL continues to affirm its position as a leading Vietnamese general contractor with global ambitions.
The investor commended CENTRAL’s strengths in comprehensive coordination, timeline management, and stringent quality control—all vital in a large-scale development spanning over 415,000 m², which includes 5-star hotels, branded residences, commercial centers, and world-class amenities.
At the construction site, CENTRAL’s Chairman/CEO conducted a direct inspection, engaged with engineers and workers, and recognized their relentless dedication. Operating in a dynamic, multicultural environment, the project team’s commitment has become a point of pride for the company. Leadership involvement served as a strong motivator, empowering the on-site management team to confront future challenges with confidence.
CENTRAL acknowledges that in order to thrive in demanding markets like the Middle East, it must continue to build internal capacity, modernize management systems, embrace digital transformation, and foster a professional, globally competent workforce. At CENTRAL, quality is not merely a benchmark—it is an identity, a commitment, and the pathway to global recognition.
Regardless of project location—domestic or international—precision, discipline, and dedication remain core principles. These values distinguish CENTRAL as a professional, resilient, and forward-thinking enterprise, continuously strengthening its global standing through integrity and excellence. Today’s efforts lay the groundwork for CENTRAL’s growth, adaptability, and forward momentum.
Additional Highlights from the Visit:
The four-day trip to Saudi Arabia will be followed by a three-day tour of Dubai and Qatar, where CENTRAL’s executives will hold meetings with key strategic and potential partners, further extending the company’s footprint in the region.
