Vietnam's First Building Material, Furniture Trade Center Opens

The wholly foreign invested company T&M Vietnam yesterday officially inaugurated Melinh Plaza, the first-ever construction material and interior furniture trade center in Vietnam, at the 8th kilometer of the Thang Long-Noi Bai Highway, south of Hanoi.

 

The complex with a total investment of $24 million comprises a main building with three satellites, all on 67,000sq.m where construction materials and interior furniture will be sold and displayed. Next to them will be an office building and apartments for lease standing on 15,000sq.m, a 1,000sq.m restaurant and two general warehouses with respective areas of 10,000sq.m and a 30,000sq.m. 

 

In addition, Melinh Plaza will have banking and transport services and host events at the Business Center with a more than 200-seat conference hall. The complex will be well-furnished with Trane air conditioners (US), KONE elevators (Finland), Schindler escalators (Switzerland), and international-standard security cameras, communication, fire-alert and fire-hoist systems.

 

Nguyen Can Hong, General Director of the company said around 200 domestic and foreign enterprises have registered to lease up to 80 per cent of the trade center’s areas.

 

This is the first modern self-contained complex in Vietnam that gathers almost all prestigious local and international construction materials and interior furniture producers.
