Vietnamese-Cambodian Partnership Enhances Workwear Production
Phnom Penh, Sunday, 30 March 2025.
Vietnamese firm Dony Garment partners with Cambodian businesses to provide cost-effective, reliable garment manufacturing, bolstering the regional textile industry amid Cambodia’s projected 8.6% manufacturing growth in 2024.
Strategic Manufacturing Expansion
In a significant development for regional textile manufacturing, Dony Garment’s production facilities in Ho Chi Minh City are strategically positioned to serve the Cambodian market, offering efficient logistics with delivery times of 1-2 days by road and 5 days by sea transport to Phnom Penh [1]. This strategic positioning comes at a crucial time when Cambodia’s manufacturing sector is projected to grow by 8.6% in 2024, with the overall economy expected to reach 6.0% growth by 2025 [1].
Regional Trade Growth
The partnership reflects strong regional trade momentum, with Vietnam’s textile exports showing remarkable growth, increasing by 6.3% to reach $20.27 billion in the first seven months of 2024. Similarly, Cambodia’s garment exports have demonstrated robust performance, rising by 25% to $8.9 billion in 2024 [1]. This collaboration emerges amid increasing international interest in Cambodia’s textile sector, as evidenced by recent investment interests from major players like Hong Kong’s Fung Group in Cambodia’s Special Economic Zones [2].
Quality Assurance and Compliance
Dony Garment brings significant credibility to this partnership through its comprehensive international certifications, including FDA, ISO 9001:2005, CE certification, TUV Reach certification, and Intertek certification [1]. The company’s CEO, Mr. Pham Quang Anh, emphasizes their commitment to empowering Cambodian uniform and workwear companies by enabling them to scale operations while maintaining high-quality standards [1].
Investment Climate and Future Prospects
This partnership aligns with Cambodia’s broader economic development, where the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) has approved 391 investment projects worth over $7.5 billion, potentially creating 341,000 new jobs [2]. The industrial sector, which includes textile manufacturing, has attracted 52% of these investments, highlighting the sector’s vital role in regional economic growth [2].
