On the 12 October 2023, representatives from the Air France-KLM Group and Viet Nu Trading Corp met to formalize the partnership through a signed contract.

This collaborative effort among companies advances sustainable aviation practices and fosters increased demand and utilization of SAF.
Jose Hartojo, Country Manager Air France-KLM Singapore and Vietnam said: “Viet Nu Trading Corp is the first company in Vietnam to join our Corporate SAF program, and we are delighted to welcome them as one of the pioneers in Vietnam, supporting with the key transition from fossil fuel to Sustainable Aviation Fuel. Today marks the start of greater awareness among companies in Vietnam to collaborate with us to make SAF available around the globe.”
Mr. Stanislas Jonville, Founder of Viet Nu Trading Corp said: “As a proud French citizen who has called Vietnam home for nearly two decades, I see it as my duty to represent Air France as an ambassador across the globe. I am committed to advancing projects that benefit our environment from Air France-KLM, such as the Corporate Sustainable Aviation Fuel Program”
