Molex opens its expanded manufacturing facility in Hung Yen
Global electronics and connectivity solutions provider Molex has completed the initial building phase of its expanded manufacturing plant in Hung Yen strengthening its high tech manufacturing footprint in Vietnam as its second site in the country
Molex has opened an expanded manufacturing facility in Hung Yen, Vietnam, on September 17, 2023. The 250,000-square-meter facility provides high-tech manufacturing, engineering, and quality assurance services to support high-speed data center customers. Currently, the plant employs nearly 5,000 people and is projected to expand to 8,000 employees by the end of 2026.
For the past 20 years, Vietnam has been a prime location for Molex's operations and investments, allowing the company to better serve global customers. Molex CEO Joe Nelligan expressed appreciation for the local talent pool and the company's commitment to expanding its workforce for sustained growth. The new Hung Yen site complements Molex's existing 28,000-square-meter plant in Hanoi, which has been operational since 2007 and employs 1,000 people.
Both facilities incorporate advanced energy-saving systems, such as on-site solar power, LED lighting, electronic controls, and inverter-based air conditioning, all managed through a centralized building management system.
