HCMC – Daiwa Vietnam Co., Ltd began construction on a sports equipment factory worth US$40 million at the Hoa Khanh Industrial Park in the central coastal city of Danang on December 15.
The project, which was licensed in 2019, covers a total area of four hectares and is slated for completion on January 10, 2022.
It is the third project of Daiwa Vietnam at the Hoa Khanh Industrial Park, raising the company’s total investment in the three projects to US$90 million.
Addressing the ground-breaking ceremony, Ho Ky Minh, vice chairman of the municipal government, said the sports equipment factory project invested by Daiwa Vietnam is a result of the cooperation between the city and Japanese investors.

The construction of the project also demonstrated that the city had brought the Covid-19 pandemic under control and has gradually coped with the impact of the health crisis.
