Shein to set up huge Vietnam warehouse in US tariff hedge: Reuters

  • In 2025, Shein finalized an agreement to rent a large industrial site spanning close to 15 hectares for its inaugural warehouse, located in the vicinity of Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam.
  • This move follows U.S. Tariff changes, including the scrapping of a China exemption and uncertainties in the U.S.-China trade war affecting Shein's reliance on China.
  • The warehouse, about 26 football pitches in size, will store apparel from contractors before export, while Shein also invests heavily in China and expands suppliers in Vietnam and other countries.
  • Shein, a fast-fashion retailer known for affordable apparel such as inexpensive cycling shorts and summer dresses, generates over $30 billion in annual sales but now faces significant tariffs reaching up to 120%, prompting the company to explore diversification strategies.
  • The Vietnam warehouse could reduce Shein's exposure to volatile U.S.-China trade tensions, as imports under $800 from Vietnam remain duty-free and tariffs on other exports are temporarily 10%.
