Vietnam trade and automotive manufacturing expansion

Overview

Vietnam is expanding its international trade and manufacturing capabilities across the agricultural and automotive sectors.

In the agricultural sector, officials from An Giang province are seeking to deepen cooperation with the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region to increase Chinese market access for rice and fruit. Simultaneously, the automotive sector is seeing growth in both exports and supply chain localization. Kim Long Motor has completed its first international shipment of finished electric buses to Thailand.

In the domestic manufacturing landscape, companies like Weldcom are strengthening their roles within the automotive supply chain. Weldcom has expanded its partnership with VinFast to include the design and installation of complex, automated production lines, including a car body line in Hai Phong featuring over 200 robots. Weldcom has also acted as a general contractor for production lines in Ha Tinh, India, and Indonesia.
