Numerous Furniture Companies Moved from Indonesia to Vietnam

  Since early 2015, there were 6 foreign furniture companies moved their factories from Indonesia to Vietnam.

There is a large furniture company invested by Taiwan in Sidoarjo - East Java has decided to move their factory to Vietnam. This company was started dismantling and will move in early 2016.

Companies from Taiwan have been operating for 3 years in Indonesia then want to switch to manufacturing in Vietnam because of the labor cost and the minimum wage. The minimum wage in Vietnam has increased by 150% in the past 3 years. After considering the costs, they decided to move to Vietnam to operate more efficiently. Moreover, manufacturing in Vietnam is 35% more efficient than in Indonesia.

Finding the right business partner in Vietnam is also important. We recommend doing research on the reputation of the company and individual shareholders, corporate or individual, gathering publicly available company information, and performing background checks on key personnel to find potential risks in cooperation. Working with a reliable partner can help achieve economic benefits, saving time and money in business.
