VĨNH LONG — Furukawa Automotive Systems Vinh Long Vietnam Inc (FAVV) on Monday broke ground for a plant in the southern province of Vinh Long.

The ground-breaking ceremony was attended by provincial authorities, representatives of industrial parks in the province and local officials.

Located in Block F of the Binh Minh Industrial Park in Binh Minh Town, Furukawa Automotive Systems Vinh Long Vietnam plant will produce electric wire harnesses for the auto industry.

They will be sold to most auto brands around the world.

“We have worked with FAVV for nine months with many online and offline working sessions,” Nguyen Quoc Khanh, general director of Thien An Design Construction Trading Company, the general contractor for the plant, said.

“Thanks to the support from local authorities and the patience of the investors, we have overcome many difficulties.”

The construction remains on schedule.

“It is a great honour for Thien An to be the principal contractor for a project built by FAVV.”

With the determination and prestige of the investor, the project would be successful, attracting more Japanese investors to the province, he said. 

“FAVV will be a model project in term of process and quality as well as the co-operation between a Japanese investor and a Vietnamese contractor.”

The construction is testimony to a high-tech investment wave that is coming into Viet Nam’s south-western region, a wave that will contribute greatly to the development of the Mekong Delta and help it join the global supply chain.

When commissioned, the FAVV plant will employ 6,000 local workers and contribute a great deal to the local government’s coffers. It will also contribute to Vinh Long’s stable development.
