Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has completed a new production building at its Ho Chi Minh manufacturing site in Vietnam, marking a strategic expansion aimed at strengthening the supply of coil products for consumer electronics and automotive applications. The company invested approximately ¥3 billion in the project, covering the building construction alone.

The facility, located at the Ho Chi Minh branch of Murata Manufacturing Vietnam Co., Ltd. in Dong Nai City, was officially completed on October 8, 2026. Murata said production systems will now be installed, with operations scheduled to begin in phases.

Capacity Expansion Supports Automotive and Consumer Demand

The new building adds manufacturing space dedicated to coil products, electronic components used to stabilize electrical currents and suppress noise in electronic systems. Demand for such components continues to rise as automotive electronics become more sophisticated and consumer devices require greater performance and reliability.

According to Murata, the expansion is designed to help ensure a stable supply of coil products to customers worldwide.

The three-story reinforced-concrete structure has a total floor area of 10,576 square meters and a building area of 3,500 square meters. Construction began in May 2025 and was completed in October 2026.

Vietnam Remains a Key Manufacturing Hub

The project underscores Vietnam’s growing importance within Murata’s global manufacturing network. Murata Manufacturing Vietnam Co., Ltd. operates facilities in both Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City and employed 3,142 people as of August 31, 2026. The subsidiary specializes in coil product manufacturing and serves as a critical base supporting Murata’s electronics component business.

As demand grows across automotive and consumer electronics markets, the investment positions Murata to enhance manufacturing resilience while supporting long-term customer supply requirements.
