Garment-textile businesses face difficulties due to lack of domestic supply

Vietnam's textile and garment industry has long faced an imbalance between production stages. The two stages at the beginning and end of the chain, yarn and sewing, have a very large scale of development, while weaving and dyeing have remained industry bottlenecks for years. Some localities refuse textile and dyeing projects, saying that the textile and dyeing industry causes pollution, although investors say they will use modern processing technology that will not have a negative impact on the environment. Not only with the issue of textile dyeing, the shift of investment into the supply shortage of the Vietnamese textile and garment industry is still not as expected. Up to 90% of textile and garment raw materials of enterprises in HCM City were dependent on imports (mainly from China), while only 10% was local supply. Source: Vietnam News Agency
