PROMOTING LOCAL PRODUCTION AND LOCAL INDUSTRY
TMV's production operations promote the local manufacture
of a growing number of the components that make up the
vehicles we produce. Starting with the local production of
seats, wiring harnesses, body trim, and hand tools, TMV is
cooperating with the Vietnamese suppliers to steadily
increase the local content of our vehicles.
TMV is also actively conducting technology transfer by
training our Vietnamese staff. In addition to our effective
OJT (On the Job Training), we regularly dispatch Vietnamese
team members to Japan and are often visited by technical
advisors from Toyota Japan for the development of TMV staff
capabilities. All these activities combine to make a
lasting contribution to the advancement of the Vietnamese
industry.
