Lindstrom Begins Operations in Vietnam


Lindström has opened a service centre in Southern Vietnam marking the start of its operations in the country. This represents a significant milestone as Lindström is the first company to introduce a workwear rental solution in the Vietnamese market, according to a news release.

“Vietnam offers a unique and exciting opportunity for us, driven by rapid industrial growth and a rising demand for professional workwear,” said Anupam Chakrabarty, group senior vice president of Asia. “I’ve also observed that Vietnamese businesses highly value sustainable services, allowing us to support their goals and drive positive change together.”

The workwear rental service provides a comprehensive solution, including industry-specific workwear design, maintenance and washing, product replacement when necessary, and scheduled delivery to businesses at a weekly rental fee.

Unlike the traditional method of purchasing and managing protective clothing in-house, the rental model helps businesses optimize costs, ensure hygiene and safety, and enhance their professional image. Notably, by extending product lifecycles and committing to 100% textile waste recycling, Lindström minimises environmental impact.

“I am thrilled that Vietnamese companies can clearly see the numerous benefits that our workwear rental model can bring to their operations,” said Duc Nguyen, Lindstrom’s business unit manager in Vietnam. “These include convenience, improved hygiene standards and sustainability compared to the traditional model of buying textiles and washing them in external or in-house laundries.”

The service centre in Vietnam is located in Bien Hoa City, Dong Nai province, a region with a strong industrial base. According to the release, the centre has the capacity to handle thousands of workwear sets daily. The facility is designed using a modular model, allowing for rapid scaling as market demand grows. The laundering and maintenance processes will adhere to international standards, ensuring that every workwear set meets maximum safety and hygiene conditions before being delivered to businesses.

“We are eager to invest further and provide more employment opportunities. Our goal is to become the country’s leading provider of workwear solutions,” Chakrabarty said.
