Apparel sector has met crisis head-on – President
Mr Nguyen Minh Triet, President
Recently, the best performing companies from the apparel and leather manufacturing sector were given awards for their performance. Speaking on the occasion, the President of Vietnam said that he highly valued the achievements made by both the sectors, in maintaining markets and export value.
While giving away awards to 79 recipients, Nguyen Minh Triet, the President said, they were sensitive industries which employed around 2 million people and were greatly impacted by the changes in the global economic environment.
But they quickly learned how to meet customers' needs and give priority to the local market and also met the crisis head on by improving their management capacity in production, business and marketing, the President said.
Outstanding businesses from the textile and apparel sector are being given these awards since 2004 by the Viet Nam Garment and Textile Association in association with the Saigon Economic Times and for the first time the leather sector has also been considered for giving away these awards.
