The visionary behind Mylife Group, home to celebrated brands such as YEN Sushi and Kohi Coffee

A graduate in food chemistry from the University of Technology, Yen Mai Linh soon discovered her true calling in business. Determined to refine her expertise, she pursued a master’s degree in business administration at the Maastricht School of Management in the Netherlands. Upon returning to Vietnam, she launched the Mylife coffee chain with an initial capital of just 400 million VND. Thanks to its elegant spaces and high-quality offerings, the brand swiftly gained a loyal following.

Building on this success, she expanded into Japanese cuisine with the restaurant chains YEN Sushi & Sake Pub, YEN Sushi Premium and Shamoji Robata Yaki. With a steadfast commitment to quality, ambience and service, she has solidified Mylife Group’s position in Vietnam’s high-end F&B market.

Beyond the culinary world, Mylife Group—under Linh’s leadership—has also made its mark in architecture through two distinguished firms, Galaxy ID and The Art & Interiors, both recognised for their innovative designs and achievements.
