Samsung, a South Korean company, plans to invest $1.8 billion in the construction of an OLED display manufacturing plant in Vietnam, Azernews reports.
The new enterprise will be built in the north of the country next to another existing Samsung plant.

Thus, Samsung has so far placed six factories in this country, as well as a research and development center. The volume of investments of the South Korean corporation in Vietnam reached $ 22.4 billion.

In the second quarter of 2023, this figure amounted to 668 billion won (487 million dollars).
