Phoenix Petroleum unit in Vietnam gets ISO mark

MANILA, Philippines — The Vietnam-based subsidiary of independent oil player Phoenix Petroleum Philippines Inc. has secured its first International Organization for Standardization (ISO) certification.

Phoenix Gas Vietnam (PGV) was granted ISO Certificate 9001:2015 by certifying body Universal GmbH, through PQI Vietnam, proving the company’s commitment and compliance to quality products and services.

This covers PGV offices in Ho Chi Minh City, Danang, Cam-Ranh, Nha-Trang, and Go-Dau.

“Since our establishment in 2019, Phoenix Gas Vietnam has been continuously working on improving our operations and services to ensure that we only provide world-class, safe, and high-quality products and services to our customers. As a young brand, we wanted to establish PGV as a credible and reliable brand in the Vietnamese market. Hence, this certification from ISO is a great achievement for us,” PGV general director Duong Nghia Dung said.

The certification is the PGV’s first ISO nod, and the fourth one for the whole Phoenix group.

“We welcome the addition of yet another ISO certificate to our group. PGV has been doing exemplary over the past years, getting landmark achievements for the whole group. This only proves that even with its overseas subsidiaries, Phoenix maintains the same level of operational excellence and quality that it has across its ventures, and shows that Filipino businesses are truly world-class,” Phoenix Petroleum president Henry Albert Fadullon said.

Last year, PGV was awarded the Top 20 Gold Service Award for Consumer Rights 2021 by the Committee on Good Vietnamese Products and Consumers’ Rights in recognition of its exemplary performance in the supply and trade of LPG in Vietnam.

As PGV general director, Duong was also awarded the Outstanding Vietnamese Businessman 2021 Award for his role in helping achieve the organization’s accomplishments.

Previously, Phoenix Petroleum received two ISO certifications in 2019, and another one in 2020 for its Quality Management System, Environmental Management System, and Occupational Health and Safety Management System. The certification covers the company’s Philippine offices, including its terminals and depots.
