The second phase of a 300 million USD fibre factory kicked off in Hai Yen Industrial park, Mong Cai city, the northern province of Quang Ninh on July 10, following the completion of the first phase.

The project, invested by Texhong Ngan Long under Texhong Group, is the largest FDI project so far in the province.

The industrial fibre factory will consist of six workshops with a total capacity of nearly 140,000 tonnes per year. It will be built in three phases with the second phase expected to be completed in 2015 and the third phase, in 2017.

Two workshops and support facilities have been built in the first phase, and two more will be constructed in the second phase to produce natural cotton and man-made fibre as well as cloth.

According to Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Doc, the Texhong fibre factory was the first FDI project licensed after Quang Ninh held an investment promotion conference in early 2012.-VNA
