/EIN News/ -- Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, Nov. 04, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Home to a population of over 92 million, Vietnam houses a thriving textile industry with manufacturers of almost every niche of clothing running businesses. The south-east Asian nation’s textile industry is one of the largest globally, right behind China and Bangladesh, and has shown a remarkable potential to trump both its market competitors. 

The probability may soon become a reality, especially in a post-COVID world where most brands are choosing to move away from China and its facilities, amid rising labor expenses and a global dissatisfaction towards the Communist nation where the ongoing pandemic originated.

Despite the slowdown caused by the rapid spread of the novel Coronavirus, Vietnam’s textiles and apparel sector witnessed earnings of US$16.18 million, of which over US$ 13 million were from exports conducted in the first six months. It has even surpassed Bangladesh to become the world’s second-largest textile importer, a laurel the country is confident it will carry for a long time to come.

There are quite a few advantages of choosing a Vietnam manufacturer's clothing, which include trade agreements with several countries, fast turnaround time, and high-quality products for reasonable prices. A detailed discussion of these aspects follows – 

  • 1. Vietnam has, to date, maintained reasonable pricing for the goods it manufactures without compromising on quality. The quality of finished products manufactured in Vietnam is among the top 10% in the world.
  • 2. The country has one of the world’s highest Speed to Market rates in the clothing and fashion industry. Also known as Make to Market rate, Speed to market rate is a measure of the pace at which clothing items go from beginning to be manufactured to being displayed in stores, ready to be sold. Vietnamese manufacturers’ consistently high turnaround times have made the country the destination of big brands like Marks and Spencer, Mango, Gap, and Nike.
  • 3. The government and various textile manufacturers’ associations organize several business-to-business exhibitions and international shows, which gives suppliers and producers a platform to meet clients and showcase their products. In turn, it provides companies with a variety of options to identify makers who can cater to their specific requirements.

a.  EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) – Discussed in 2015, this bilateral trade agreement is expected to come into force by the end of 2020, permitting Vietnamese and European businesses to trade freely, besides letting European investors and firms set up manufacturing units sans restrictions in Vietnam. 


b.  Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) – This trade arrangement will let Vietnam conduct exports to and receive foreign direct investments from 13 countries, including Canada, Australia, Brunei, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, and Singapore. If all goes as planned, this arrangement will spur a massive inflow of funds into the Vietnamese economy, strengthening its manufacturing capabilities further.

Bottom Line

The small country located in the south of China is growing in the manufacturing market and gradually becoming one of the world's largest clothing and apparel exporters. Vietnam is considered a developing country, but it can manufacture high-quality clothes while offering lower production costs. 

Considering the sheer number of manufacturers, buyers have a wide variety of options to choose from and identify a company that can adequately meet their requirements. 

Given the availability of labor, low production cost, and the variations manufacturing units can handle, the garment-producing industry in Vietnam is all set to see a significant growth spurt in the post-pandemic world.

“In the past, the world turned to China when it needed massive quantities of consumer products,” notes Henry Pham - CEO of Dony Garment Company. “The COVID-19 pandemic changed that a bit and the ongoing trade war between China and the US have inhibited Chinese production of PPE even more.
Other countries have been catching up to China’s manufacturing capacity: we can now produce nearly a quarter-million Dony Mask a day when needed. We do it with a degree of precision and quality control that larger Chinese manufacturers can’t match, and with the same low overhead, government support, and access to global shipping channels that China is known for."
