Efforts to sustain production

According to Bui Minh Tri, Head of Management Board of provincial industrial parks, in the current time, companies must prevent and control epidemic outbreak, guarantee health and safety for employees, and actively organize industrial production to adapt to the new situation. Most enterprises in industrial zones implement regularly and seriously disease prevention control measures, plan the most optimal options if there is F0 and F1 cases, promote the role of Covid-19 Safety Teams in health checking, daily monitoring...

Due to extremely complicated developments of this epidemic wave, provincial businesses have done a good job of disease prevention control, protecting the health and safety of employees, maintaining production and business. The Covid-19 has caused great fluctuations, but also an opportunity for businesses who know how to seize opportunities and overcome challenges. Amidst difficulties and challenges, the business community has also responded flexibly, changed their business model, strongly applied digital technology, reduced costs. Many firms not only well adapt to survive but also show the will to rise up, ready to restructure their business and markets, welcome opportunities and follow new development goals.

Although trade with many countries is difficult, many enterprises in industrial parks have carried out introduction and promotion of online products and received large numbers of orders. Currently, many businesses receive POS for until the third quarter of 2021, even for the whole year and 2022. Some main export markets, such as: USA, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong etc. are gradually recovering. In the coming time, when free trade agreements are implemented in a more comprehensive and effective way, it will contribute to stimulate the export of key sectors, such as textiles, footwear.

According to Mai Ba Tien, Director of provincial Department of Planning and Investment, in order to well implement the "dual goal", businesses need the support of all government levels, branches and localities in anti-epidemic work and overcome difficulties in production and business. The province determines to make efforts into two "fronts", both fight against epidemic and guarantee economic growth. In addition to drastic anti-epidemic solutions, the province has also had timely support solutions, such as assisting businesses to access preferential loans to maintain production and business activities.

Many companies also implement the maximum reduction of worker number and thorough control of people in and out factories.
