The factory, to be built at a cost of US$50 million, is a joint
project between the German Sudwolle Group and the Ho Chi Minh City-based Lien
Phuong Textile and Garment Corporation.
Covering a total area of more than 61,000 square metres, it is
estimated to produce about 4,000 tonnes of wool per year for domestic
consumption and exports.
Upon its operation in April 2019, the factory will use imported
materials to produce wool. Vietnam currently has 50 garment facilities using
wool, with most of them using materials imported from Australia.
The factory is expected to generate revenue of more than US$100
million per year and create jobs for 400 local labourers. It will also be
open to the public for visitors to witness all wool-making steps.
