A representative from Vaksindo Vietnam said that the veterinary vaccine factory began construction in April 2022 on an area of more than 20,000 square meters and is expected to expand further in the future.
As a GMP-WHO certified vaccine factory, Vaksindo Vietnam applies advanced technology to produce veterinary vaccine products that meet international standards.
When put into operation, the factory will operate five production lines on an area of 9,000 square meters, focusing on cell vaccines, egg-based vaccines and bacterial vaccines.
The factory's key products are designed to meet vaccine needs for pigs, cattle and poultry.
Speaking at the inauguration event, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Phung Duc Tien said that currently, domestic vaccines for livestock produced at GMP standards only meet about 70% of demand.
In that context, the start of operation at the Vaksindo Vietnam vaccine factory is an important event, he noted.
The Deputy Minister said he expects that Vaksindo Vietnam would soon launch products to meet domestic needs and move towards exporting, with a particular focus on researching vaccines that Vietnam is currently importing.
