The company’s orders have remained stable and its workforce rose from 600 to 1,700. By the end of November, Doosung Tech Vietnam had raked in 115 million USD in revenue, over-fulfilling its set target of 98.9 million USD, up 5 percent year-on-year. The provincial Department of Labours, War Invalids and Social Affairs has suggested the IPMB present an award to Doosung Tech Vietnam for its successful implementation of legal regulations towards labourers.  

Almine Vietnam Company’s turnover also edged up by 15-20 percent after one year of operation.

The Mong Hoa Industrial Park alone has attracted four more projects, including a 250 billion VND fruit juice project, a 150 billion VND plywood project, a 100 billion VND project producing medical equipment and a fertilizer project worth 25 billion VND.

To date, the provincial industrial parks are home to 72 projects, including 22 foreign direct investment (FDI) projects with a total capital of 438.4 million USD and 50 domestic projects valued at nearly 7.6 trillion VND. Of those 45 projects have been put into operation, generating jobs for 16,230 workers, of whom nearly 90 percent are local people.
