According to Truong, competition will turn more fierce as competitor countries helped by advantages in exchange rates as well as tax rates will continue to bag orders, while economic instability in the EU too will become a matter of concern for the Vietnamese sector.
In 2016, VINATEX saw its revenue growing 5 per cent over 2015 to $2.5 billion, with pre-tax profits also rising at the same pace to reach VND 41 trillion. These results came in the year when, overall Vietnamese garment exports climbed 5.7 per cent year over year to $28.3 billion. (AR)
