Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam to affirm position in steel structure supply
Mr. Krishnakanth Kodukula, General Director of Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam (ZSV), talks about its journey in becoming a successful steel structure solutions provider in Vietnam and Southeast Asia.
Established in 1997, Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam (ZSV) is a 100-per-cent FDI enterprise established by the Zamil Industrial Investment Company from Saudi Arabia. Throughout its 25 years of growth, ZSV has developed to become the most successful steel structure solutions provider in Vietnam and Southeast Asia.
Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam (ZSV) has gone through 25 years of development in Vietnam. Can you tell us about its achievements as the leader in its industry?
With three flagship products - pre-engineered steel buildings (PEB), steel structures, and MaxSEAM roof systems - over the past 25 years, Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam has supplied over 7,000 projects for customers worldwide. Many of these projects are of great importance to the economic, cultural, and social development of countries, such as the Siam Reap International Airport project in Cambodia, the Petronas petrochemical complex project (part of Malaysia’s RAPID key economic development program), and the Bangladeshi Government’s cyclone shelters project on Bhasan Char Island, etc. The company also exports pre-engineered steel building products and structural steel to many advanced countries and regions, such as Europe, Australia, the Americas, and Japan, and has become one of the most prestigious steel building brands in the region.
ZSV’s pre-engineered steel buildings and structural steel solutions are greatly appreciated by customers for their sophisticated design, high durability, and suitability for many uses: from factories and warehouses to oil and gas projects, large industrial complexes, commercial centers, exhibition halls, stadiums, airports, and many other types of infrastructure.
As the earliest Saudi Arabian-invested enterprise in Vietnam, since the early years of renovation, Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam is considered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Vietnamese Government as a successful example of strategic cooperation and investment relations between Vietnam and countries in the Middle East and Gulf region. ZSV has won a Golden Dragon Award from Vietnam Economic Times for 18 consecutive years for its positive contributions to the development of Vietnam’s economy in general and the construction industry in particular. Products from Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam have also been honored as key industrial products of Hanoi for many years and were awarded a Gold Cup certificate for excellent Vietnamese brands by the Vietnam Intellectual Property Association thanks to their prestige, reputation, and quality.
What differentiates Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam from other businesses in the industry?
Our vision is to become the world’s most reliable and innovative manufacturer and service and solutions provider in the steel industry. This vision has been a guideline for every aspect of our business. Each and every employee at Zamil Steel Vietnam has embodied this vision and lived up to it. We consider providing high-quality products and services to customers as a critical element of our business.
With the growth of the steel building industry in Vietnam and Southeast Asia over recent years, we believe that the pursuit of the global vision and mission of Zamil Steel, with a focus on continuously improving product quality, will help us maintain our position as the pioneer in this dynamic market.
What is the role of Vietnam in the development strategy of Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam in the Asia-Pacific market?
With a convenient geographical position for exports, a hard-working and skilled workforce, and a stable political system, Vietnam has been rising to become one of the world’s new manufacturing hubs with the relocation of the global supply chains in many countries. Over the past 25 years, we have always considered Vietnam as a gateway to other markets in the Asia-Pacific region. We hope to be part of this area’s growth and look forward to adding even more value in the future.
To meet our strategic goals, we have been vigorously promoting a digital transformation plan in all business activities to meet the needs of our customers. Accordingly, the two factories of Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam will connect and synchronize at every stage of the production process in order to optimize time and costs and increase output. At the same time, we will also prioritize solutions to improve customer service quality, information processing capacity, and transparency. All these changes will strengthen ZSV’s position in the market and be a foundation for Zamil Steel’s sustainable growth over the next decade in Vietnam and the Asia-Pacific.
