Vinatex to build textile and garment factory complex in central province of Quang Nam

The Vietnam National Textile and Garment Group (Vinatex) has started construction of a textile and garment factory complex in the central province of Quang Nam. The project includes a fibre factory with a capacity to produce 4,600 tons of products annually, a textile and dyeing factory with annual capacity of 5,000 tons and a garment factory with 20 knitwear production lines with capacity to manufacture 20 to 25 million pieces per year.

The textile and garment complex project would involve investment at the tune of 1.14 trillion dong (approximately US$ 53.5 million). It is spread over 20 hectares in Que Son district and will provide employ to about 2,000 people in the first phase of the project.

Once the complex becomes operational, it will supply materials to domestic garment manufacturing companies, including the ones in Phu Yen, Ha Tinh and Da Nang.

An effluent treatment plant to treat 5,000 cubic metres of wastewater per day will also be built by Vinatex.

In 2015-17 period, Vinatex group plans to spend 9.4 trillion dong on textile, garment, and infrastructure projects. About 60 percent of this amount would be invested in weaving, dyeing and infrastructure projects.

For this year, Vinatex has set a target to earn 900 billion dong in revenue, and an after-tax profit of 288.4 billion dong.
