The working program aimed to gain a comprehensive understanding of operational performance, listen to proposals from the grassroots level, and set directions for key tasks in production, business operations and development investment.
In the northern region, the General Director worked with Vietnam Float Glass Co., Ltd. (VFG), Viglacera Tien Son JSC, Viglacera Sanitary Ware Company Limited (VIGSA) and Viglacera Thanh Tri Sanitary Ware JSC. Subsequently, in the southern region, the General Director visited Viglacera Binh Duong Sanitary Ware Company, Viglacera Float Glass JSC (VIFG), Phu My Ultra Clear Float Glass Co., Ltd.

The program was attended by Vice General Directors in charge of relevant fields, the Chief Accountant of the Corporation, representatives of specialized departments, as well as leaders, the Board of Supervisors and relevant departments of each unit.
Staying Close to Reality, Understanding Operations from the Grassroots Level
At the working sessions, the General Director directly inspected the current status of assets, surveyed factory premises and visited production lines in Viglacera’s key fields, including construction glass, tiles, sanitary ware and sanitary equipment.
Leaders of the units reported on production and business operations; production line operating capacity; product quality; market development activities and investment plans for the coming period. Difficulties and obstacles encountered during production organization were also frankly discussed for the Corporation and its units to jointly consider and seek solutions.
At Viglacera Tien Son JSC, the General Director visited the tile production lines at Viglacera My Duc Factory and Viglacera Eurotile Factory, as well as the Vasta Stone sintered stone warehouse and CNC processing workshop. Through the on-site inspection, the General Director highly appreciated the unit’s efforts in investing in technology, expanding its product portfolio and enhancing processing capacity, gradually meeting the increasingly demanding requirements of the market.
At the glass enterprises, the General Director focused on reviewing operating capacity, product quality and the efficiency of production line utilization. For the sanitary ware and sanitary equipment group, the working agenda focused on improving productivity, controlling quality, optimizing costs and developing product lines with high added value.
Technological Innovation Associated with Investment Efficiency
Through the working sessions, General Director Tran Ngoc Anh requested the units to continue conducting a comprehensive review of production operations, improve management efficiency and proactively adapt to market fluctuations. The factories need to focus on investing in advanced technologies, accelerating automation at each stage, saving raw materials and energy, and reducing production costs.
The General Director emphasized that technology investment should not only aim to increase capacity but must bring about substantive improvements in productivity, quality, cost and product competitiveness. Each investment project needs to be carefully studied, closely aligned with market demand, consumption capacity and the Corporation’s overall development orientation, thereby ensuring the long-term efficiency of resource utilization.
Alongside maintaining the stability of existing product lines, the units need to proactively research new products, enhance technological content and added value, while leveraging the advantages of linkages within the Viglacera building materials ecosystem. Product development must be carried out in coordination with market research, distribution system development and service quality improvement.
At the working session with Viglacera Tien Son JSC, the General Director listened to the unit’s presentation on the investment plan for the AAC project, which is being urgently implemented to anticipate market demand, and provided specific directions for its implementation.
The program of visits and working sessions at production units in the two regions demonstrates the close-to-reality and decisive approach of General Director Tran Ngoc Anh from the very first days of assuming his duties. Directly inspecting actual operations, listening to opinions from the grassroots level and providing specific orientations will create momentum for the units to continue innovating and improving operational efficiency, contributing to strengthening competitiveness and promoting Viglacera’s sustainable development in the new period./.
