(HBO) – Many workers have returned to local industrial parks in the northern province of Hoa Binh after enjoying a week-long Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday, making contributions to helping their companies realise the set production and business targets for the whole year 2020.
In
2019, besides robust business results, Midori Apparel Vietnam Co., Ltd (Luong
Son Industrial Park) worked to ensure social welfares for its labourers.
According
to the province’s management board of industrial parks, the province is housing
eight industrial parks, each spanning from 77-282 hectares and locating along
National Road No.6, Lang – Hoa Lac – Hoa Binh city road, and Ho Chi Minh road.
As of the end of 2019, the industrial parks had 95 valid projects, including 24
foreign direct investment projects with total registered capital of 499.75
million USD, and 75 domestic projects valued more than 7.27 trillion VND (312.9
million USD).
Most of the local firms have run smoothly, with 50 operational
projects that create jobs for 19,441 labourers.
Last year, enterprises at local industrial parks seen better revenues, export
value, and higher contributions to the state budget, as well as generate more
jobs as compared to 2018. They have observed regulations on planning,
construction, environmental protection and business and production.
Thanks to local efforts to improve the business climate and remove bottlenecks
for local firms, industrial parks in the province lured 15 new projects in
2019, equivalent to 187.5 percent of the yearly plan. Firms at the industrial parks
exported 633.17 million USD worth of products, contributed 180 billion VND to
the state budget, and created new jobs for 1,583 labourers, all surpassing the
set goals.
In 2019, the province gained nearly 37.4 trillion VND from industrial and
handicraft production, a year-on-year surge of 15 percent. Meanwhile, its export
revenue rose 24.48 percent to 791.9
million USD./.
Once a mountainous province facing many challenges, Hoa Binh has, after more than a decade of implementing the national target programme on new-style rural area development, emerged as a bright spot in Vietnam’s northern midland and mountainous region. In the first quarter of 2025, the province recorded positive results, paving the way for Hoa Binh to enter a phase of accelerated growth with a proactive and confident mindset.
Hoa Binh province is steadily advancing its agricultural sector through the adoption of high-tech solutions, seen as a sustainable path for long-term development.
The steering committee for key projects of Hoa Binh province convened on May 14 to assess the progress of major ongoing developments
A delegation of Hoa Binh province has attended the "Meet Korea 2025" event, recently held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Vietnam, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the People's Committee of Hung Yen province.
Hoa Binh province joined Vietnam’s national "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) programme in 2019, not simply as a mountainous region following central policy, but with a clear vision to revive the cultural and agricultural values in its villages and crops.
From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
