AFRY Press Release 1st September 2020 at 12:30pm CET
AFRY’s long history in Vietnam goes back to its first project in Hanoi in 1978 and the establishment of a Representative Office in 1997. However, it is in the last twenty years that AFRY has grown to be one of the leading providers of international consulting engineering services in Vietnam. With the establishment of the local subsidiary, AFRY is now taking the next step in strengthening its local presence in this growing market. Vietnam is one of the most dynamic consulting engineering markets in Asia due to the significant industrial and commercial development taking place. Vietnam is expected to continue to be one of the fastest growing economies, with further acceleration from the EU free trade agreement, which was finalised by August 1st 2020, as well as from the relocation of industries taking place in Asia.
In Vietnam, AFRY is active in power generation (including renewable wind and solar power), waste-to-energy, LNG, pulp and paper, forestry, automotive, infrastructure, water and wastewater, environmental and management consulting sectors, and its service provision covers the whole project life cycle from early phase development through construction and commissioning, as well as operations support. AFRY currently employs 40 personnel in Vietnam, with staff numbers projected to continue growing in 2020 and 2021.
