Over the past few years, there has been a growing interest among the Western countries to shift their manufacturing base from China to other countries. With the ongoing trade war between the United States and China and the rising labor costs in China, many Western companies are looking for alternative manufacturing destinations that can offer competitive costs, skilled labor force, and business-friendly policies. In this regard, India is emerging as a perfect replacement to China as the global manufacturing hub for the West.
India and Vietnam both have been emerging as potential alternatives to China as global manufacturing hubs. Both countries offer several advantages such as low labor costs, business-friendly policies, and a large workforce. However, there are several reasons why India could be a better choice than Vietnam as a replacement for China's manufacturing prowess:
In conclusion, while Vietnam offers several advantages as a manufacturing hub, India could be a better choice for Western countries looking to shift their manufacturing base from China. India's larger market potential, stronger legal system, versatile range of industries, larger pool of skilled labor, and improving infrastructure make it an attractive destination for manufacturers. As global supply chains continue to shift, India is slowly emerging as the smarter choice and the new manufacturing powerhouse of the world.
