Smart, sustainable, and human-centered - The three pillars Viking Vietnam steadily pursues

Posted on: 23/10/2025

In the global apparel industry, many factories focus on maximizing quantity, saving every second to reduce costs. But at Viking Vietnam, we chose a different path: steady yet efficient, meticulous yet lean, focusing not only on products but also on people, processes, and responsibility to the environment.

The three pillars that guide Viking’s long-term strategy are smart manufacturing, sustainable manufacturing, and human-centered manufacturing. These are not just strategic choices for global integration but also living commitments to our people, our global customers, and our homeland of Vietnam.

Smart manufacturing at Viking – More than machines, it is integrated intelligence

When people think of “smart manufacturing,” they often imagine automation and advanced software. But at Viking, smart manufacturing is a complete management ecosystem where technology, data, and people work in harmony.

We have implemented the MES (Manufacturing Execution System), connecting every step in the production chain – from fabric cutting, sewing, and seam sealing to final packaging. With MES, all indicators on productivity, technical errors, completion speed, and recycling rates are tracked in real time.

No longer dependent on “personal experience,” every Viking employee – from engineers to operators – can make decisions based on accurate data. This empowers Viking Vietnam to stand out as an apparel manufacturing partner in Vietnam, trusted by demanding markets like Germany, the United States, and Japan.

Sustainable manufacturing at Viking – A courageous choice in a world of pressure

While many factories struggle to balance profit and environmental responsibility, Viking Vietnam has made a clear choice: we only grow if we grow sustainably. This is demonstrated through our international certifications such as ISO 14001 and SA8000, and our commitment to ESG principles across all operations.

What Viking practices every day:
Using recyclable, eco-friendly technical fabrics.
Reusing water in heating and cooling processes.
Gradually eliminating harmful chemicals and switching to Oeko-Tex and Bluesign-certified materials.
Sorting and managing waste properly to protect local ecosystems.

Sustainable manufacturing at Viking is not simply about “meeting standards” – it is about keeping our promise to the planet, to consumers, and to the children growing up just beyond our factory gates.

Human-centered manufacturing – A culture that puts people first

At Viking, people are not “ordinary workers” but dedicated artisans, precise engineers, and compassionate administrators. They are the ones who bring every seam, every waterproof layer, and every quality inspection to life.

The culture of human-centered apparel manufacturing at Viking is nurtured through:
Comprehensive welfare programs: fair wages, healthcare benefits, and family-oriented activities.
Holistic training: from technical expertise and international standards to soft skills such as communication, parenting, and emotional intelligence.

We believe that an international-standard garment factory cannot exist without people – and above all, without humanity.

Viking – An ecosystem of integrity in manufacturing

The three pillars of smart manufacturing at Viking, sustainable manufacturing at Viking, and human-centered apparel manufacturing have enabled us not only to deliver orders on time and with consistent quality but also to earn lasting trust from long-term global partners.

At Viking, we do not see manufacturing as a lifeless machine. We see it as a journey of creating value – through intellect, technology, and compassion. That is why many global customers say, “When we work with Viking, we don’t just receive products – we receive trust.”

 

Choosing to manufacture with true values

The world is entering a new era where responsibility, transparency, and trust are the most valuable currencies. In this new era, Viking Vietnam confidently walks its chosen path – continually innovating while staying true to its core values.

If you are looking for an apparel manufacturing partner in Vietnam, not just to outsource production but to collaborate meaningfully, come to Viking Vietnam.

Because we manufacture not only with machines, but with heart.
