There are many pieces of high technology equipment that are new in Vietnam, including the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution, to be used at the factory.
According to Tran Dang Tuong, General Director of Bao Minh Company, the firm has invested more than 80 billion VND to build 160 apartments for 700 workers to live in for free.
Addressing the launching ceremony, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Quoc Khanh said that the operation of the factory will help deal with problems in Vietnam’s apparel sector in terms of the development gap between sewing and waving-dying processes.
He expressed his hope that the factory will become the leading woven fabric factory in Vietnam, while ensuring the firm’s social responsibilities. –VNA
