On April 29, 2025, just one day after the Vietnam-Japan Forum on cooperation in strategic industries, high technology, green transition, and semiconductors, co-chaired by Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Japanese Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru, Tokuyama Vietnam Co., Ltd. officially held the groundbreaking ceremony for its polysilicon manufacturing project for the semiconductor industry at Phu My 3 Specialized Industrial Park.
The project has a total investment of over USD 60 million, marking a significant milestone in the development of Vietnam’s semiconductor industry—a key sector identified to play a pivotal role in the era of Industry 4.0.
Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Nguyen Van Tho, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province, emphasized: "This is the province’s first project in the field of polysilicon production for the semiconductor industry. It will play a crucial role in developing Vietnam’s semiconductor supply chain, improving the quality of the workforce, promoting the transfer of high technology, and driving sustainable local economic growth".
Tokuyama’s "Global Silicon project" in Vietnam aims to apply international-standard polysilicon production technology to directly serve the semiconductor sector. The project is expected to create plenty of high-quality jobs for the local workforce and contribute great value to the provincial economy.
Beyond its economic significance, the project also contributes to reducing reliance on imported polysilicon, bringing Vietnam closer to its goal of becoming a regional hub for electronics and semiconductor manufacturing. This project not only demonstrates Tokuyama’s strong commitment to the Vietnamese market but also enhances the reputation of Phu My 3 Specialized Industrial Park, affirming its role in attracting high-tech, sustainable, and environmentally friendly investment projects.
Phu My 3 Specialized Industrial Park is proud to have earned the trust of Tokuyama as the destination for their strategic investment. We extend our best wishes to Tokuyama for continued strong growth, remarkable success, and far-reaching achievements in the global market.
