Mr. Pham Quang Anh - Director of Dony Garment Company Limited said that in addition to objective signals from the market, the core factor helping the business grow impressively in 2024 is actively expanding the market. "Recently, the unit signed an order with a new market, Africa, for 110,000 shirts. At the same time, the company also has many orders for the first quarter of 2025 that have been finalized" - Mr. Pham Quang Anh shared.
To ensure that the supply chain is not disrupted and orders with partners and customers are maintained, many industrial production units and enterprises in some localities still operate during Tet. The spirit of determination and effort to produce during Tet has brought momentum to enterprises right from the first days of the year.
Aiming for double-digit industrial growth
In 2025, the Ministry of Industry and Trade aims to increase the industrial production index by about 9-10% compared to 2024. Accordingly, it is necessary to focus on many solutions to increase added value for industrial production to create a new, stronger and more comprehensive driving force.
Looking ahead to 2025, Mr. Pham Nguyen Hung - Director of the Department of Industry (Ministry of Industry and Trade) forecasts that in 2025, the world economy still has many potential unstable factors, especially the possibility of a strong resurgence of de-globalization, trade protectionism and trade wars; along with new geopolitical tensions. Domestically, industries have more market opportunities from receiving new foreign investment flows and large projects in key national sectors (especially in high-tech industries such as semiconductors, renewable energy, high-speed railways, etc.).
To contribute to ensuring the implementation of the 2025 goals, industrial production will continue to proactively and effectively implement the macroeconomic policies in general and industrial development policies in particular of the Government and the Ministry of Industry and Trade, promote the operation of new industrial production projects to serve export and domestic consumption, creating more capacity for production development and goods sources for export.
At the same time, effectively implement working programs with localities and existing business support programs to promote the growth momentum of industries in key economic regions, creating momentum to continue promoting industrial growth nationwide.
In the first days of the new year, there have been positive signs as some production orders have returned, production activities are still bustling day and night during the Tet holiday, expecting the industrial production business community to welcome a prosperous and brilliant year.
Resolution No. 01/NQ-CP of the Prime Minister on key tasks and solutions to implement the Socio-Economic Development Plan and State Budget Estimates for 2025, issued on January 8, also clearly stated that 2025 is an important year, a year of acceleration, breakthrough, and reaching the finish line, the final year of implementing the 5-year Socio-Economic Development Plan for 2021-2025. To achieve the above goal, the Government assigns specific targets to the Ministry of Industry and Trade in a number of industries and fields. In particular, the industrial production index strives to reach 9-10% in 2025. The Ministry of Industry and Trade will synchronously and drastically implement business support policies approved by the Government, thereby removing difficulties and obstacles in production and business activities of enterprises - especially key manufacturing industries such as textiles, footwear, and fundamental industries such as automobiles, mechanics, steel, etc. This will be a step to create momentum to continue promoting industrial production activities to become one of the "sweet fruits" contributing to the overall economic growth of the country. |
