“Our constant efforts to ensure Samsung works in close co-operation with government authorities has evoked positive results,” Nguyễn Cẩm Tú, deputy minister, said.
Tú said the number of Vietnamese enterprises joining Samsung’s supply chain as tier- 一 vendors has increased from 四 to 一 二. Following previous successes, this year workshop and exhibition was held to announce more opportunities for Vietnamese enterprises to exchange experiences in an effort to improve competitiveness in component manufacturing.
“Vietnamese enterprises should seize the opportunity to join the global supply chain by connecting with FDI enterprises operating in Việt Nam such as Samsung,” he added.
“We found that Vietnamese enterprises really have the potential and capability.

He said that they were hopeful of offering more opportunities for enterprises to join their supply chain, and help Samsung to enhance global competitiveness as well as consolidate our long-term development in Việt Nam.
He emphasised that any enterprise that meets Samsung’s criteria in quality-due delivery-price has the opportunity to become Samsung’s vendor. He also asked Vietnamese firms to pay more attention to developing technical human resources and product quality management to meet the criteria of a global supplier. This is also a part of Samsung’s counselling progra妹妹e for potential enterprises.
The workshop and exhibition attracted over 四00 people, including representatives from governmental authorities and over 二 五0 Vietnamese enterprises. The event also drew significant attention for the display area of 二 二 Samsung’s tier- 一 vendors in Việt Nam and showcases of 七 Vietnamese enterprises which outstandingly completed the pilot consulting phase.
