Danish company breaks ground on US$7mil garment plant

Thanh Nien News (Hanoi)

The Danish-invested garment company Mascot International Vietnam broke ground on a US$7 million factory in northern Vietnam Wednesday as part of a complex slated to be a global brand name distribution center.

The garment factory in Hai Duong Province’s Tan Truong Industrial Park is scheduled to come on line in January.

Construction of the facility comes as part of the Mascot International A/S-initiated textile industry complex project, slated to include a bonded warehouse after completion of the garment plant.

Mascot International A/S is ranked the fourth largest garment manufacturer in the European Union.

Michael Grosbol, general director of Mascot International A/S, said choosing Vietnam for the group’s business expansion plan in Asia was based on a thorough survey of the whole region.

He pointed out that political stability and a favorable investment environment in Vietnam were strong advantages compared to Sri Lanka, Laos and Cambodia.

Danish businesses have invested US$194 million in Vietnam, ranking 25th among 74 foreign countries and territories. Trade between the two countries is expected to increase from $200 million per year to $1 billion in the near future.

The garment and textile industry, which makes up as much as 50 percent of the country’s total export value, has grown a remarkable 31.7 percent over the first four months of the year, having exported $2.2 billion worth of goods.

It targets to hit $7.3 billion in shipment values this year.
