In Bac Ninh, Sumec is currently cooperating with Yethan Vietnam Energy Technology Co. Ltd, headquartered in the Thuan Thanh 2 Industrial Park in Mao Dien ward.
Seeing the province’s favorable investment climate, Shilei said the company plans to expand operations by building a new plant in Thuan Thanh Industrial Park on a site of three to five hectares. The proposed facility would manufacture aluminum components for automobiles, using gas rather than electricity in production processes.
She emphasized that the company is committed to complying with Vietnam’s legal framework during project implementation.
