Overview and Current State of Industrial Parks in Hung Yen

Hung Yen Province, located in the Red River Delta region of northern Vietnam, covering an area of approximately 930km² and is home to over 1.2 million people. The province has been seeing steady population growth and industrial expansion over the decade[1]. Situated just about 40 kilometers southeast of Hanoi and roughly 100 kilometers from Hai Phong Port, Hung Yen is strategically positioned to support industrial activities with its easy access to transportation routes such as Hanoi–Hai Phong expressway, Hanoi-Hai Duong-Hai Phong railway – which connecting Hung Yen with Vietnam’s economics zone in the northern provinces. This favorable location has made it an important point for both domestic and international investment.

By 2023, Hung yen boasts about 9 major industrial parks, which include popular sites like Pho Noi A, Thang Long II, and Yen My II. These parks are focused on high value industries like electronics manufacturing, automobile components, textile and apparel. Notably, in 2023, the province attracted over 1 billion USD investment on building factory, manufacturing equipment, upgrading infrastructure, etc. The investors are mostly from major countries like Japan, China and Korea[2]. This increase in investment reflects Hung yen competitive advantages, including low labor cost – ranging around 250-300USD per month in 2024[3] – and housing prices in 2023 are 14 – 17% lower than those in Hanoi[4]. Additionally, the proximity to Hanoi offers an ideal alternative option for foreign companies that want to expand their business outside of the capital, where industrial land has become limited.

To further promote business and enhance competitiveness, Hung Yen People Council enact a Plan No. 31/KH-UBND in 2023[5]. This plan provides a series of incentives, such as tax breaks, land-use support, simplify investment procedures and reduce regulatory barriers, making it much easier and faster for foreign to establish operations in Hung Yen. With this preparation, the upcoming industrial park, including Kim Dong and the No. 3 Industrial Parks, are assured to attract more investors upon completion. In addition, by 2030, Hung Yen province aims to establish 5 new industrial parks with a total area of 2.5 thousand hectares, bringing the total number of industrial parks to 30[6].
