Sustainability and circularity are an inevitable path which Vietnamese textiles must follow, according to Truong Van Cam, general secretary of the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association (VITAS).
As Vietnam battles against the fourth wave of COVID-19 pandemic lingering since late April, much of the country's resources have been streamlined to treat the infected people, limit transmissions and accelerate the national vaccination campaign.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc admitted although Vietnam has gained initial success in global supply chains, Vietnamese businesses have mainly joined these chains in fields such as assembling or product packaging, which are lower in value and lack sustainability in supply chains.
