(HBO) – Over the past time, Hoa Binh city has maintained its industrial and handicraft production, with a number of businesses even expanding their production capacity.
Major products include garment-textile,
and electronic components. Such sectors as construction material, brick and
broom production, food processing, carpentry, garment-textile and mechanics
have been kept stable, helping to generate jobs for labourers.
Yen Quang Industrial Park in Hoa Binh city is under
infrastructure building.
Over the past two months, the city’s total
industrial-handicraft production value was estimated at 402.06 billion VND, up
18.3 percent year-on-year, of which the business circle created 350.76 billion
VND and individuals and cooperatives for 75.3 billion VND.
The municipal People’s Committee has
ordered focusing on key products and industries in service of agriculture and
rural areas, saying attention should be paid to small and medium industries and
supporting industries in combination with handicraft development.
The committee has also urged removing
difficulties in site clearance to complete infrastructure at industrial areas
and clusters, especially those located on the left of Da, Mong Hoa and Yen
Quang Rivers./.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
Amid efforts to streamline the administrative apparatus, Hoa Binh province has intensified measures to address challenges in land clearance, resettlement support, and infrastructure investment, aiming to speed up the progress of key projects.
Hoa Binh province has posted an unprecedented economic growth rate of 12.76% in the first quarter of 2025, marking its highest quarterly performance to date and positioning it as the second fastest-growing locality in the country, trailing only Bac Giang province.
Under current regulations, products in the One Commune – One Product (OCOP) programme that are rated three stars or higher must undergo re-evaluation every three months. However, in reality, some of these products fail to consistently meet the required standards, raising concerns about the sustainability of their OCOP certification. This underscores the urgent need for producers to enhance product quality and gradually develop their OCOP products into strong, marketable brands.
