Viet Nam Cotton and Spinning Association (Vcosa) said many foreign enterprises from Taiwan, mainland China, Korea and Japan have flocked to HCM City to look into investing in the domestic spinning industry for the past few months.

The companies felt they could benefit from tax exemptions or reductions as Viet Nam begins implementation of the Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPP), said the association.

The agreement, which was signed last November, allows members to enjoy a zero tax rate by 2015.

There is an old saying, "Everything in life is location, location, location!" That is certainly true of the textile industry, and wholesale fabric importer Ramtex, Inc. is a testament to this. Ramtex maintains dye houses and a cut and sew facility in China, which allows for convenient China to China shipping for its clients, but it also maintains a stockpile of hundreds of thousands of yards of fabric in a Los Angeles fabric warehouse. That decision has enabled Ramtex, Inc. to respond to orders much faster and with more consistency than the competition. Indeed, there have been many instances in which a business ordered fabric wholesale from another importer, only to come to Ramtex, Inc. when that first company failed to meet deadlines. Now these businesses are loyal customers of Ramtex, Inc., returning time and again for all their wholesale fabric needs.

In spite of its strength, low density and biodegradability, keratin has been studied only for few areas of application. But in near future we can expect more application for chicken fibre. Chicken feathers they are not just for bird's anymore.
