Vinh Hung Forges Strategic MOU with Two European Industry Leaders, Advancing Domestic Railway Technology Localization

On November 12, 2025, Vinh Hung formalized a strategic cooperation with Maccaferri (Italy), a global pioneer in geotechnical reinforcement, and Vossloh (Germany), a world-leading railway infrastructure corporation with annual revenues exceeding 1 billion euros, operations in 65 countries and a broad network of  multinational subsidiaries. The signing ceremony took place at the Vietnam National Exhibition Center (VEC), and served as a highlight of the International Exhibition and Conference on Modern Railway Technology (VRT&CON 2025). Vinh Hung is currently the only Vietnamese enterprise capable of synchronously manufacturing bridge bearings, expansion joints, noise barriers, steel structures, and successfully exporting them to markets across  Asia and America.

The strategic collaboration among Vinh Hung, Vossloh, and Maccaferri marks a critical step toward localizing technology and the manufacturing of railway equipment. The three parties will coordinate on research, technology transfer, and production directly at the Vinh Hung Factory in Vietnam. The core objective is not only to optimize costs and shorten the supply chain but also to strengthen the nation's technical self-reliance in the transportation sector.

Deputy Minister of Construction Nguyen Danh Huy and a high-level delegation visited the exhibition booth.

The Vinh Hung booth made a strong impression, attracting the interest of a large number of experts and visitors.

Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Tran Thien Canh, Director General of the Vietnam Railway Authority, remarked: "Railways play a vital role in the transport system and are identified as one of the three strategic pillars requiring investment. Achieving this goal depends on pioneering enterprises capable of mastering and transferring technology. Vinh Hung's cooperation with international partners clearly reflects this vision and demonstrates the effectiveness of policies encouraging localized production. This partnership lays a foundation for Vietnamese enterprises to participate in developing railway technology, receiving technology transfer, meeting domestic needs, and ultimately joining the global railway industry value chain."

To operationalize this strategic vision, Vinh Hung and its international partners have agreed on a detailed implementation roadmap for each specialized field. Together with Maccaferri, the two parties plan to establish a strategic joint venture dedicated to developing advanced slope stabilization and protection solutions. This joint venture will not only serve major domestic infrastructure projects but also expand into regional and global export markets. In parallel, Vinh Hung will comprehensively enhance its supply capacity for Vietnam’s national railway infrastructure system with support from Vossloh, a multinational group headquartered in Germany and France. Specifically, Vossloh Fastening Systems GmbH (Germany) will transfer the production process for rail fastening systems, while Vossloh Switch Systems France S.A. (France) will support the domestic manufacturing of turnout systems. Vossloh is committed to assisting Vinh Hung in achieving European manufacturing standards, ensuring precision, safety, and exceptional durability  for Vietnam's transport infrastructure.

Mr. Vo Ta Luong, General Director of Vinh Hung, stated: “This strategic MoU reaffirms Vinh Hung's position and global outlook. Partnering with Maccaferri and Vossloh allows us access to cutting-edge technology and enables us to methodically build a robust domestic manufacturing capacity that will contribute meaningfully to the modernization of Vietnam’s railway industry.”

Mr. Eckhard Koeppen, Vice President of Sales for Asia and Oceania, Vossloh Fastening Systems GmbH, added: “Vietnam is a dynamic market with tremendous infrastructure development potential. Vinh Hung's deep market insight and manufacturing capabilities make them an ideal partner for a sustainable and effective joint venture. We are committed to a phased technology-transfer roadmap to achieve our product localization goals here.”

For nearly two decades, Vinh Hung has been a steadfast contributor in Vietnam’s infrastructure development, consistently pursuing the mission of technology localization and technical self-reliance to elevate the national transport mechanical engineering sector.
