Industry is considered the pillar and "backbone" of the economy that can lead to economic growth, according to the Politburo's Resolution No. 23-NQ/TW dated March 22, 2018 on orientations to building national industrial development policy until 2030, with a vision to 2045.

To make the industry truly the pillar and driving force of the economy, Hoa Binh province has taken numerous solutions over the past five years, including the issuance of supporting policies that are relevant to the new period.

Based on an action programme developed by the Standing Board of the provincial Party Committee, the provincial People's Committee has directed local departments and sectors to issue plans and documents relating to six groups of tasks and solutions such as restructuring and developing priority industries; creating a favourable business and investment environment for industrial development; issuing mechanisms and policies for expanding industrial enterprises and industrial resources; policies for exploiting natural resources and minerals and protecting the environment and adapting to climate change in industrial development.

Thanks to the active and drastic direction of the provincial Party Committee and People's Committee, progress has been made in terms of investment attraction and its industrial sector, contributing to the locality’s economic growth.

The industrial production value increased by 2.81% per year in the 2018 - 2022 period. The proportion of workers in the industry and service sectors rose from 33.85% in 2019 to 40% this year.

Attention has been paid to the planning and construction of industrial infrastructure, creating favourable conditions for attracting industrial projects. Currently, there are 16 planned industrial parks with a total area of over 4,000ha.

No facilities that cause serious environmental pollution have so far been reported in the locality.The rate of hazardous waste treated has reached over 95%. A number of key industrial sectors have been formed, creating motivation for development. Administrative and institutional reform and policy mechanisms building have met the requirements of industrial development.

In order for the industry to develop properly and play a vital role in leading other economic sectors, the province aims to lure investment in the industrial sector towards improving productivity and quality, using less resources and energy and becoming friendly to the environment.

Priority will be given to attract industrial projects producing key products to effectively and competitively participate in the global value chain such as projects involved in producing and manufacturing electronic components and equipment; those with high intellectual content, creating great added value and consuming less resources and energy or causing environmental pollution.

The province strives to achieve the goal that by 2025, the proportion of industry-construction accounts for 54% of the economic structure and the occupancy at industrial parks reached over 80%.
