[BUY06] Strategic Investor Seeking Majority Acquisition of an Electrical & Energy Equipment Manufacturer in Vietnam

Sunday, 21 Dec, 2025

A strategic investor is actively seeking to acquire a controlling stake (50% or more) in a Vietnam-based electrical and energy equipment manufacturing company, with an investment size starting from USD 10 million.

This is a build-and-scale M&A transaction, focused on long-term industrial development rather than short-term financial returns.

Transaction Overview

  • Sector: Electrical Equipment & Energy Manufacturing

  • Transaction type: M&A – majority acquisition

  • Target ownership: ≥ 50%

  • Deal size: From USD 10 million

  • Target market: Vietnam

  • Priority level: Very High

  • Reference timing: March 2026

The investor is specifically looking for companies with real manufacturing assets, proven technical capability, and project execution experience.

What the Investor Is Looking For

1. Legal Compliance & Transparency

The target company must:

  • Operate legally with valid licenses in the electrical, energy, or construction-related fields

  • Have a clear ownership structure and transparent financial records

  • Have no major legal disputes or unresolved compliance risks

This is a prerequisite for due diligence.

2. Manufacturing Capability (Key Requirement)

The investor is not interested in trading companies or EPC firms without manufacturing depth:

  • The company must own and operate a manufacturing facility

  • Possess core production lines for electrical equipment fabrication and assembly

  • Factory investment value of at least USD 10 million, typically corresponding to 1.5–3 hectares of industrial land

  • Certified ISO systems with robust QC/QA processes

Manufacturing capability is the central value driver of this transaction.

3. Power & Energy Project Experience

Strong preference for companies that have:

  • Supplied or participated in transmission and distribution projects

  • Delivered equipment for substations, wind power, solar power, or industrial power systems

  • A verifiable project track record and technical profile

4. Market Access & Client Base

Companies with experience working with or supplying to:

  • EVN, EVNNPT, EVNSPC, EVNCPC, EVNHCMC, or related entities

  • Power infrastructure, renewable energy, or industrial projects

will be viewed as lower-risk and more scalable post-acquisition.

5. Technology & Product Competitiveness

The investor is looking beyond basic fabrication:

  • Products with technical differentiation and market competitiveness

  • Ability to upgrade technology and expand product lines after investment

  • In-house engineering or R&D capabilities (electrical, mechanical, design engineers)

6. Brand Reputation & Industry Standing

  • Recognized credibility within the industry

  • Strong B2B or project-based customer relationships

  • No history of serious quality, delivery, or compliance issues

7. Operational Track Record

  • At least 5 years of operating experience

  • Consistent product quality and stable operations

Why This Matters for Vietnamese Manufacturers

Vietnam’s electrical and energy equipment sector is entering a phase of:

  • Accelerated infrastructure and energy investment

  • Rising technical and capital requirements

  • Increasing competition from regional and global players

This M&A opportunity offers more than capital:

  • Manufacturing scale-up and technology upgrades

  • International-level governance and systems

  • Access to larger projects and broader markets

For the right company, this is a chance to transition from a domestic supplier to a regional industrial partner.

Who Should Consider This Opportunity

This opportunity is relevant if your company:

  • Owns and operates a real electrical equipment manufacturing facility

  • Has experience in power, energy, or industrial infrastructure projects

  • Is open to governance upgrades and strategic ownership changes

  • Wants to accelerate growth rather than expand incrementally

It is not suitable for companies that:

  • Operate mainly as traders or intermediaries

  • Lack core manufacturing or engineering capabilities

  • Rely heavily on subcontracted production

A Note to Manufacturing Leaders

This M&A mandate reflects genuine strategic capital demand for Vietnam’s manufacturing sector.

Companies that stay connected to manufacturing platforms gain:

  • Earlier visibility into real acquisition and investment opportunities

  • Clear insight into how international investors evaluate factories and capabilities

  • Time to prepare before capital becomes a necessity
