The establishment of VIGSA, based on the merger of the Corporation’s former sanitary ware and faucet manufacturing and trading units, marks a new chapter in Viglacera’s strategy to elevate its brand position and build sustainable value.

In response to the question: “Why the restructuring and establishment of the Vietnam Sanitary Equipment Company Limited (VIGSA)?”, Mr. Tien concisely replied: “The core objective of VIGSA is to concentrate resources and unify management to create overall strength for breakthroughs.” Mr. Tien pointed out that the soul of this innovation lies in six core pillars, but among them, investment in developing the platform, specifically in-depth production automation and digital transformation, is considered the most important strategic leverage. All of this is centered around three factors: adherence to the laws of development; ensuring sustainable growth; and the need for the enterprise to adapt to the current situation and competitive pressure of the market.
