Garco 10 has joined ITMF as corporate member. Garco 10 is one of the largest enterprises in Vietnam’s apparel and textile industry with a total of 19 factories and manufactures and exports nearly 30 million garments a year.

Established in 1946, Garco 10 initially focused on making military uniforms. Founded in 1904, the ITMF is the international forum of the global textile value chain for producers of fiber to finished products. Its members are from textile and apparel-producing countries representing approximately 90 per cent of global production.

For Garco being part of an international forum like ITMF is very valuable. Having access to an international network like ITMF provides Garco 10 access to companies and people from around the world in a cooperative environment and allows participationin discussions about trends and initiatives in the industry. The publications, reports and surveys that ITMF produces will help Garco better understand the underlying dynamics in the industry.

Equally having Garco 10 as a member will provide ITMF an additional perspective on Vietnam. The global textile and apparel industry is constantly undergoing structural changes. Currently, the changes and dynamics are unprecedented and therefore an international forum for exchange and discussion provides added value.
