Vietnamese seafood giant Minh Phu Group has inaugurated a VND1.5 trillion (US$57.4 million) seafood processing plant in Ca Mau Province, strengthening the country's seafood processing capacity while creating more than 5,000 jobs.
On June 28, Minh Phu Group officially inaugurated the Minh Phu Khanh An Seafood Processing Plant at Khanh An Industrial Park in Khanh An Commune, Ca Mau Province.
Built on a site of nearly five hectares, the plant required a total investment of VND1.5 trillion (approximately US$57.4 million). It has an annual processing capacity of 35,000 tons of seafood products and is expected to generate employment for more than 5,000 workers.
