Ajinomoto Vietnam’s second factory manufacturing Aji-ngon flavour seasoning in Long Thanh industrial park, southern Dong Nai province commenced production on September 23.

Construction of the US$11 million factory began in 2007 and it is equipped with brand-new, state-of-the-art machines, thanks to modern Japanese technology.

The new factory will produce 15,000 tonnes of product per year and create jobs for 240 local workers.

The company’s first factory is located in Bien Hoa industrial park, also in Dong Nai province.

Established in 1991, the wholly Japanese-owned Ajinomoto Vietnam manufactures umami seasoning, flavour seasoning and other types of seasoning. (VNA)
