HA TINH TO GET $15M GARMENT PLANT
Chairman of Ha Tinh People’s Committee Dang Quoc Khanh has signed a decision approving the construction of Haivina Hong Linh garment factory at Nam Hong Industrial Zone.
Accordingly, the Haivina Hai Duong Company Limited will invest VND345 billion (US$15 million) for the factory in the central province of Ha Tinh to produce and trade sports and industrial gloves, as well as sportswear of all kinds for both local consumption and export.
This will be the first plant in the company’s factory chain in the central region.
The plant, with a capacity of 12 million products a year, would include workshops and offices on an area of 8.9ha.
It is expected to become operational by the end of 2021.
The factory would contribute to the province’s socio-economic development, creating jobs and contributing to the State budget.
The South Korean wholly-invested Haivina Hai Duong Company Limited now has three garment factories including two in the northern province of Hai Duong and one in the central province of Nghe An.
The provincial People’s Committee has been active in attracting investment in tourism, service and garment sectors in the province’s northern area. The garment projects in the region would help the province resolve the urgent issue of abundant women labourers.
