Orders are flourishing
At Indian Ocean One Member Limited Company (Can Tho City), the production pace in the working days after Tet becomes bustling as orders continue to increase. New products are being promoted and are promising to bring workers a higher income level in the new year.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Bang Tuyen - Chairwoman of the Company's Trade Union - said that it is expected that orders in 2026 will increase sharply compared to 2025 by 30-40%, ensuring stable jobs and income for workers.
We are continuously training workers to know how to process new items, increase production productivity, and ensure order progress. In particular, the salary brought to workers from processing perch is also higher than tra fish," Ms. Tuyen said.
Meanwhile, Lefaso Tra Vinh Industrial Investment and Production Joint Stock Company (Vinh Long province) forecasts that although in the first quarter of 2026 there are still challenges due to the delay of global economic recovery, market purchasing power has not increased sharply, but it will gradually warm up from the second quarter of this year.
From the second quarter of 2026 onwards, the market will gradually warm up thanks to stimulus policies and the shift of the supply chain. The company's 2026 orientation is to diversify products, improve competitiveness, automate machinery and equipment, promote digital transformation in management and efficient production operation, and maintain sustainable welfare policies for employees," said Ms. Tran Thi Thone - Vice President of the company's grassroots trade union.
Workers enthusiastically start their shifts
Sharing the joy with the business when orders pour in, the workers directly standing at the machine, sticking to the workshop, also could not hide their excitement when their income had positive changes.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Hoi (worker of Indian Ocean One Member Limited Liability Company) expressed her excitement when hearing the news that the company has more new orders.
Thanks to my available skills, I only needed to study a few more days to become proficient in processing this new item. What makes me most enthusiastic is that the income from making perch is higher than tra fish, helping my family's life to be more stable, creating motivation for me to strive to increase production productivity right from the early days of the year," Ms. Hoi shared.
Sharing the same mindset of being ready for a breakthrough year, Ms. Hua Thi Be Nhi (worker of Lefaso Tra Vinh Investment and Industrial Production Joint Stock Company) shared: "The company's orders have begun to show signs of recovery from the end of 2025, helping us workers ensure jobs and have additional income.
According to the female worker, these positive signals have added great motivation for everyone to try together. In 2026, Ms. Nhi expects orders.
