Ladies and Gentlemen, 

Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, 

First of all, on behalf of the Leadership of the 

Ministry of Industry and Trade, I would like 

to welcome all our guests of honor, 

distinguished guests, representatives of 

businesses and the mass media to Vietnam 

Saigon Textile & Garment Industry Expo 

2012 - Vietnam Saigon Fabric & Garment 

We are all aware that Vietnam’s textile and garment industry is one of the key 

manufacturing industries, that has always enjoyed a high export turnover in the 

Vietnamese economy. Over the past years, the industry has always succeeded in 

achieving high growth rate, regional and global competitiveness, high localization 

rate of exports, high revenue and profit and thus continuously improving workers’ 

income and tax contribution to the state budget. 

This achievements have made the industry No. Export Industry in the country with 

export turn-over of USD 11,2 bn in 2010 and over 15,6 bn USD in 2011. 

In addition to great business results, the Garment and Textile Industry in Vietnam 

has been continuously developing an enabling investment environment with 

supportive policies aiming at boosting international cooperation, investments and 

manufacturing movement from China, South Korea, Taiwan Hong Kong and other 

countries to Vietnam. With an export turn-over of USD 15.6 bn in 2011, an 

increase of 39% compared with 2010 results, Vietnam continues to reinforce its 

position as one of the leading apparel manufacturing and exporting countries in the 

world, an attractive investment destination for apparel investors, manufacturers 

and traders in the world. 


Master plan for Textile and Garment Industries development until 2015 aiming at 

USD 20bn export turn-over and 60% localization rate is posing now urgent needs 

for innovation, quality assurance, labor, environment management improvement, 

and the upgrade of Vietnam Apparel Value Chain to meet international standards. 

With this direction in mind, finding the right partners –leading suppliers of



machinery and accessories will inevitably contribute to the future success of the 

apparel industry in Vietnam. 

The exhibition this year has brought together nearly 300 international and domestic 

enterprises. This is a great opportunity for Vietnam apparel businesses to learn 

about new technologies, modern machineries and accessories that could help them 

to make informed investment decisions and better meet the demands of 

international buyers. This is also a great chance for domestic and international 

business working in different industries to get on together to find new partners, 

promote one’s brands, expand one’s market and build up long-term cooperation. 

I strongly believe that with the right direction set by the Government, strong 

leadership of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and overall efforts of the industry, 

Saigon Textile & Garment Industry Expo will maintain its position as one of the 

most prestigious expos in Vietnam and in the region, an attractive destination for 

apparel manufactures, international investors, domestic and international buyers 

alike. 

Once again, on behalf of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, I wish you all good 

health and great success. 

Best success to all Vietnamese and international manufactures, equipment and 

accessories suppliers participating in this exhibition. 

Great success to Vietnam Saigon Textile & Garment Industry Expo 2012 - 

Vietnam Saigon Fabric & Garment Accessories Expo 2012. 

Thank you!



Speech given by Mr. Hoang Ve Dung 

Deputy General Director of VINATEX 


First of all, please allow me, on behalf of 

VINATEX, to send our greetings and 

sincere thanks to all the distinguished guests, 

the exhibitors, the foreign and domestic 

enterprises who have participated in the 

Opening ceremony of Vietnam Saigon 

Textile & Garment Industry Expo 2012 - 

Vietnam Saigon Fabric & Garment 

Accessories Expo 2012in Ho Chi Minh City. The exhibition is organized with the 

sponsor from the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the co-ordination of Vinatex, CP 

Exhibition and Vietcham Expo. 

Ladies and gentlemen, Vietnam Saigon Textile and Garment Expo 2012 has a 

display area of 8,000m2 with the participation of nearly 300 companies from 18 

countries and territories who will introduce equipment and machineries for fibre, 

textile, dyeing industries and materials and accessories serving Vietnam and 

regional textile and garment industries.. 

In the year of 2011, Vietnam’s textile and garment industry achieved a high growth 

rate with export turn-over of 15.6 billion USD with an increase of over 39% 

compared with 2010. With such advantage, we believe that 20 billion USD export 

turn-over targeted for the year of 2015 is feasible. However, maintaining the 

growth rate in the context of the world’s turbulent economy and severer 

competition is always a challenge to Vietnam’s Textile and Garment Industry. 

In order to implement the sustainable development strategy of the industry untill 

2015, ensuring that the manufactured products satisfy the needs of domestic and 

international markets and increasing the added values to the products, Vietnam’s 

textile and garment industry needs to comrehensively invest in know-hows, 

equipment and technologies aiming high outputs, high quality and 

environmental friendliness. The Expo we have today provides opportunities to the 

industry’s enterprises to learn about and choose the state-of-the-art equipment 

manufactured in advanced industrial countries and to look for the supply sources 

of suitable materials and accessories. 

Taking this occasion, I would like to sincerely express my thanks to the leaders of 

the Ministry of Industry and Trade, People’s Committees of Ho Chi Minh City and 

other cities and provinces, government agencies, Consulates and Trade Offices 

from different countries, Vietnam’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry, domestic



and foreign clients, media agencies, central and local broadcasting stations who 

have participated in the today event. 

I would like to wish you good health and success. 

I hereby declare open the Vietnam Saigon Textile & Garment Industry Expo 2012 

Vietnam Saigon Fabric & Garment Accessories Expo 2012 . 

Thank you very much.



Speech given by Mr. Hoang Van Dung 

First Vice Chairman of VCCI 


Distinguished guests, 

On be half of the Vietnam Chamber of 

Commerce and Industry, I would like to 

warmly welcome all the participants to the 

opening ceremony of the 22nd Vietnam 

Saigon Textile & Garment Industry Expo 

2012 - Vietnam Saigon Fabric & Garment 

Accessories Expo 2012. 


As one of the key manufacturing industries, Vietnam’s textile and garment 

industry has a strong potential for development. It is currently ranked number one 

in the group of key export sectors in Vietnam, creating more jobs and contributing 

significantly to the economic growth. In the recent years, although much 

influenced by the global economic recession, our textile and garment industry is 

continuously achieving very impressive export turn-over. As announced by the 

Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association (Vitas), in the year of 2011, the textile 

and garment industry achieved a trade surplus of $6.5 billion, an increase of $1.5 

billion compared to 2010, and localization rate of rose up to 48%. In the context of 

the country's export "negative" growth, decreasing purchasing power of many 

major world markets and Vietnam’s other key sectors the export turn-overs falling 

down, the business results of the textile and garment industry are even more 

remarkable. 

Vietnam Saigon Textile & Garment Industry Expo, held since 1992 to date, has 

become a forum where the industry’s businesses can exchange information, seek 

investment opportunities and business partnership. This event has supported the 

enterprises in grasping market information, developing investment plans, 

developing, cooperating and building of the market of materials and accessories. 

The expo has, in fact, become a companion of Vietnam's textile and garment 

industry. 


Thanks to the achievements gained in the recent years, this year, Saigon Tex 2012 

is recognized by UFI - the Global Association of Exhibition Industry - of its 

quality which meets UFI’s international standards. It is also the unique event of the



industry in Vietnam recognized by UFI. With its reputation enhanced, the 

exhibition this year has brought together nearly 300 enterprises from 18 countries 

and territories that will display and introduce their products on a total exhibition 

area of 8,000 m2. The exhibition is divided into two areas: machines and 

equipment, materials and fabrics. Along with the exhibition, a seminar on "Global 

Textile and Garment – From the supply market to the consumption market" and 

"Business solutions which create added values to textile and garment enterprises in 

Vietnam" will bring in information about solutions as well as the most 

state-of-the-art technologies to the enterprises. Specifically, in this exhibition, in 

order to enhance the connection between visitors and the exhibitors, SaigonTex 

2012’s organization committee has developed the program "Business Networking 

- Key buyer matching". This program aims at enabling the direct discussions 

between the enterprises in the industry and the suppliers at the exhibitions. With 

the diverse activities of this exhibition, we believe that Vietnam’s textile and 

garment enterprises will find mordern machines and equipment and advanced 

technology sutaible to their actual conditions, thereby improving the 

competitiveness on international markets as well as serving with better quality to 

the domestic market. 

On this occasion, I would like to thank the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ho Chi 

Minh City People's Committee, industry associations, foreign and domestic trade 

promotion organizations, communication agencies for their support to the success 

of the exhibition. 

We wish you good health, happiness and success and wish that the exhibition will 

be a great success. 

Thank you very much for your kind attention.
