The Mega Textile-Việt Nam factory will be built by Mega Textile Singapore Private Limited Company, on a total area of over 51 hectares in the Thọ Lộc Industrial Park, located in the Southeast Nghệ An Economic Zone in Diễn Châu District.

Preparation procedures are expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2025. The factory will begin trial operations in the second quarter of 2028 and is expected to provide jobs for 15,000 locals.
The project will boost FDI investment capital into Nghệ An this year to nearly $1.7 billion, bringing the province into the top 10 localities with largest FDI in the country.
Mega Textile Singapore Private Limited was established in 2022. It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Best Pacific International Holdings Limited, a publicly listed group on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
