VinFast Constructs an Industrial Framework Under Vingroup
References: prnewswire
VinFast, an electric vehicle manufacturer from Vietnam, is pursuing a distinct strategy in the automotive sector by constructing a comprehensively integrated industrial framework under its parent conglomerate, Vingroup. This methodology extends beyond mere automobile assembly to encompass control over fundamental supply elements, notably through the recent establishment of VinMetal — a facility dedicated to producing steel with a reduced environmental footprint.
VinFast's vertical integration is intended to mitigate reliance on external supply networks, manage production expenses, and diminish the overall carbon footprint associated with manufacturing. For its commercial activities in the United States, the company is concentrating on two primary sport utility vehicles — the VF 8, a mid-size model aimed at general use, and the larger, three-row VF 9 designed to accommodate families.
