While assisting Vietnam to improve management capacity, give policy advice, train human resources, boost green growth and digital transformation, and develop a circular economy, Nike helped the country build an independent and self-reliant economy with extensive, substantive and effective integration into the world and deeper engagement in global supply chains, Chinh was quoted as saying by a news agency.

Campion informed that the company produces about 600 million pairs of footwear each year, half of which are made in Vietnam, and that half of the materials for the company’s global supply chains are also sourced from the country.

The Nike Vietnam Co Ltd was founded in 1995 and has more than 200 partner factories in 20 provinces and cities, along with hundreds of businesses joining its supply chain.
