Schmersal establishes new subsidiary in Ho Chi Minh City
Wuppertal / Ho Chi Minh City, 19 July 2024. The Schmersal Group has founded a new subsidiary in Ho Chi Minh City: Schmersal Vietnam Co. Ltd.
On 1 June 2024, Nguyen Huy Truong took up his position as Country Manager at Schmersal Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh City. He has more than 19 years of experience in industrial automation and mechanical engineering and has worked for several well-known international manufacturers of automation technology. His aim is to put the new subsidiary in Vietnam on a solid basis in order to achieve sustainable growth in the region.
‘The establishment of the new subsidiary in Ho Chi Minh City is an important strategic step for the Schmersal Group to further expand its presence in Asia,’ explains Uwe Seeger, Director Middle East, Schmersal Group. Schmersal has production facilities in China and India, subsidiaries in Japan and Thailand and sales offices in other Asian countries.
Vietnam is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and has experienced significant GDP growth in recent years. The country has a young, dynamic and increasingly well-educated workforce.
In addition, the demand for modern machinery in the manufacturing industry is increasing - and with it the demand for machine safety solutions. The aim is therefore to establish Schmersal in Vietnam as one of the top suppliers of components, systems and solutions for machine safety. In addition, Schmersal Vietnam also offers the safety services of Schmersal’s tec.nicum division.
‘Vietnam's location in Southeast Asia makes the country a strategic hub for trade and provides access to key markets such as China, Japan and the ASEAN region,’ says Uwe Seeger.
