(HBO) – Not only located next to Hanoi capital city and acting as a gateway to the northwestern region, Hoa Binh province also boasts huge potential for developing tourism, agriculture, and industry amid a quick shift in the investment flow from other localities. Therefore, it now holds considerable opportunities to welcome a new wave of investment and become a development centre in the region.
Luong Son district is currently home to 48 investment
projects in its industrial parks, which has created momentum for local
socio-economic development. The photo is taken at the Midori Apparel Vietnam

Investment poured into the province has been on
the rise in recent years. A large number of domestic and foreign investors,
including major ones, have chosen Hoa Binh as their destination.
Data from the provincial People’s Committee show
that Hoa Binh accommodated 629 valid investment projects funded with non-State
budget capital as of mid-June 2021. They include 40 FDI projects worth over
619.36 million USD and 589 domestic ones worth almost 92.22 trillion VND (4
billion USD).
To attract investment and support major projects
to soon become operational, the provincial Party Committee and People’s
Committee have organised many meetings and dialogues with enterprises and
investors to learn about their situation and direct relevant departments and
localities to tackle obstacles facing their operations.
The administration of Hoa Binh also issued a set
of criteria for selecting investors in projects that use land. These criteria
prioritise investors with sufficient financial strength, experience, and fast
project implementation.
Aside from rolling out the "red carpet” for
investors, the provincial People’s Committee has also ordered thorough
settlement of projects lagging behind schedule, using land ineffectively, or
violating other legal regulations on investment and land.
Competent agencies have considered support for
the projects that failed to meet schedule due to objective reasons such as site
clearance problems and impacts by the COVID-19 pandemic. They were asked to
only consider and approve the project adjustments proposed by investors who
have realised their commitments and met all the regulated standards./.
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.

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.
