1. Overview of the Chinese and Indian generator markets in Vietnam
Generators are one of the important devices in the production, business and daily life activities of Vietnamese people, especially in the context of limited or unstable power supply. In the Vietnamese market, generators from China and India are becoming more and more popular and receiving much attention from consumers.
