General Motor to Transfer Vietnam Operation to Boost Sales
General Motors Company (GM - Free Report) is set to transfer its Vietnamese operation to VinFast Trading and Production LLC, a unit of Vietnam’s biggest private conglomerate — Vingroup JSC, per Reuters. General Motors intends to distribute Chevrolet cars through this local carmaker and anticipates this to boost its sales.
General Motors is likely to transfer the full ownership of its Hanoi factory, dealer network and employee base to VinFast by the end of 2018. Subsequently, from 2019, small cars will be produced under a GM global license.
General Motors used its Hanoi plant to assemble Chevrolet vehicles, with parts imported from South Korea. GM Korea is the biggest production base of General Motors in Asia, excluding China. The latest GM-VinFast partnership will be beneficial for the Chevrolet brand. Domestic strength, the insight of VinFast, and the global scale and expertise of General Motors will bolster this partnership.
