ABOUT US
INTRODUCE
Over 70 years of establishment and development, manufacturing wooden model boats has become a traditional profession of the Vietnamese craft village. Inheriting the achievements of the predecessors, on May 14, 2004, Gia Nhien Co., Ltd. was officially one of the next generations, with the hope of bringing the wooden model boats closer and closer to the Vietnameses, with international friends and contributing to glorifying a traditional craft village of the nation.
With a carpentry factory of more than 1,000 m2 in Trang Bom – Dong Nai province, this is the place to put the first foundation for the 17-year journey of operation and development of the professional wooden boat model manufacturing. At here, Gia Nhien gathers a team of skilled artisans with high precision and meticulousness. The skilled and rich experienced hands of the “artisans” are the “father” of models of high-end, valuable and meeting international export standards that machines have not yet been able to achieve.
THE PROCESS OF FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT
In 2004, Gia Nhien Co., Ltd opened an office in Ho Chi Minh City, and the current head office location is 168/32 Nguyen Gia Tri, Ward 25, Binh Thanh District, HCMC. Together with the showroom displaying luxurious models, our company has been much more convenient in serving and welcoming domestic and international customers.
We are proud to be the “first generation” members in the inheriting the profession of craft wooden model boat manufacturing and are the lucky ones who possess original knowledge about it. Our company strives to become one of the leading exporters of handicrafts of wooden sailboat models in Vietnam.

Model boats are produced to simulate 99% of real boats. With a variety of designs such as: tall ships, traditional ships, modern yachts, class speed boats, battle ships, commercial ships, etc. With each high-class wooden model boat that Gia Nhien produces, we would like to send you the following meanings:

- Sailboat model is a gift with great feng shui meaning, because the sailboat is the symbol of “smooth sailing”, helping its owner to always be convenient and smooth in work and life. It’s similar to a boat that is always strong to face the waves and successfully docks.
THE PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING
The process of building each model is meticulously researched by Gia Nhien such as: drawing up, choosing wood, sawing wood, shaping, creating frames, boat form bones, grinding the hull, painting for protection and decoration, joining spokes, grinding to shape the boat, joining the deck, making small details on the deck such as: seats, stairs, lifeboats, sailing ropes, sails… The motifs on the ship are hand-carved and hand-molded with the precision to the millimeter by artisans, through rigorous testing for accuracy, before being assembled into the boat’s frame.
We always uphold the quality, taking this as the first principle when making products to make a difference, bringing the wooden model boat into a valuable decorative item, showing class, honor, and what pride it will be for its owner.
When finished, each model is cherished and carefully stored on each wooden shelf. And it is closed with a wooden frame to ensure that the original state of the model is preserved from the time it is shipped to the time it reaches the customer.
At present, our wooden model boats are becoming more and more sophisticated, many customers have asked us to install on the boat an underwater operating system like a real boat, along with features of “personalization” such as name, logo, slogan… Gia Nhien always has the capacity and fulfills the requirements of customers in the most thorough and complete way.
