Vietnam to build large centres for fashion, textile and trading

Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh City has set targets of meeting 80-90 percent of Vietnam’s demand for garments and textiles by 2020, and supplying 100 percent of accessories for the country’s garment industry, the municipal authorities said.

Ho Chi Minh city will build large centres for designing fashion, trading garment, textile material and accessories to become the country’s garment, textile and accessory hub.

According to the municipal Department of Industry and Trade, Ho Chi Minh City will not establish large-scale garment and textile industrial parks, because the existing ones can accommodate all relevant enterprises,

Most of garment and textile firms are located in the export processing zones of Tan Thuan and Linh Trung, and the industrial parks of Tan Thoi Hiep, Tan Binh, Tan Tao, Tay Bac Cu Chi and Dong Nam.

According to approved plans, Ho Chi Minh city has 23 industrial parks and export processing zones, of which 17 are operational,
