Chinese textile and garment investors have also been active in investing in Vietnam to benefit from the 'yarn forward rule' in TPP, cheap labour and natural resources. The country ranked third in terms of FDI to Vietnam in January 2016.

Japanese companies Kuraray Trading, Itochu, Toray Industries and Shikibo have been investing in setting up production units in Vietnam. Many big foreign-invested projects were licensed in 2015. Other countries like South Korea and Taiwan are also investing in the country to reap the fruits of TPP.

由于越南在跨太平洋伙伴关系(TPP)协议种享有潜在的优势,外国直接投资(FDI)大规模涌入该国纺织品和服装行业，像美国、中国和其他国家,据媒体报道。

2015年底，FDI流入到越南纺织品和服装制造业达20亿美元,是到目前为止创记录的数量,根据越南纺织协会(VITAS)。

近年来越南已经大量流入美国公司的投资，如亨斯曼集团、艾利丹尼森公司等。该国的纺织和服装制造商为美国品牌如North Face、阿迪达斯、耐克等生产。

中国的纺织服装投资者也一直活跃于投资越南，从而来受益于TPP纱线规则、廉价的劳动力和自然资源。2016年1月，中国对越南的直接投资排名全国第三。

日本公司仓敷聚酯纤维交易、伊藤忠、东丽工业和敷纺已经在越南投资建立生产单位。许多大型外商投资项目在2015年被许可。其他国家如韩国和台湾等其他国家与地区也投资于该国来收获TPP的果实。

去年,越南收到约250亿美元的外国直接投资,同比上升约13%。2016年预计将有连续的FDI流入该国,纺织品和服装行业以及相关行业预计将获益。
