In recent years, alongside with paying attention to infrastructure, high-tech agriculture, services, and tourism development, Cao Phong district has focused on effectively exploiting its advantages to enhance investment attraction.

AGroup corporation starts construction of Lakeside Village project in Thung Nai commune, Cao Phong.

Cao Phong is envisioned to become an economic and cultural centre in the western region of the province. Therefore, the district has concentrated on planning and managing work, allocating significant resources to gradually modernise infrastructure system while improving the efficiency of land clearance for projects. These are the three breakthroughs defined by the district Party Committee in Resolution No. 02-NQ/HU aimed at improving its investment environment and enhancing competitiveness for the 2021-2025 period. Focus has been placed on establishing supportive mechanisms and policies to attract investment in tourism development, creating favourable conditions for organisations and enterprises investing in tourism in the locality.

In March, AGroup started construction of Lakeside Village, a 5-star wellness tourism project, the first of its kind in the Hoa Binh lake area. According to the approved plan, Lakeside Village is part of the Hoa Binh Lake national tourist complex, located in Binh Thanh and Thung Nai communes (Cao Phong). It is expected to host the Miss National Vietnam 2024 beauty pageant in October this year.

Ta Van Manh, head of the district's Finance - Planning Division, said that over the past years, Cao Phong has invested in a synchronised and modern transportation system, which is considered a lever to turn it into a new tourism hub, attracting not only tourists but also investors to the district.

The district has devised a comprehensive tourism development plan, focusing on key items such as Binh Thanh - Thung Nai – Da River reservoir tourism route and Hoa Binh lake eco-tourism site.

Attention has also been paid to industrial development. Competent agencies have suggested the district People's Committee coordinate with investors to finalise legal documents regarding industrial cluster infrastructure.

In addition, the district has lured investors to urban areas with synchronised technical and transport infrastructure, along with quality living spaces, contributing to creating new facelift for Cao Phong.

To speed up investment attraction in various fields, the district has offered the most favourable conditions for investors, especially in land clearance and administrative reform, maximising the implementation of administrative procedures in the electronic environment. Professional skill training for officials and public servants working at one-stop divisions will be strengthened to enhance citizens and businesses’ satisfaction.

With its potential and advantages, coupled with the determination of the Party Committee and local authorities in attracting investment, Cao Phong is expected to become a destination for investors.

Six-month industrial production index estimated to rise 20%

According to data from the Hoa Binh Provincial Party Committee, the industrial production index for the first six months of 2025 is estimated to have increased by 20% compared to the same period last year. This marks the highest year-on-year growth rate for this period since 2020.

Exports exceeded 1.1 billion USD in 6 months

In the first six months of 2025, Hoa Binh province’s export turnover was estimated at 1.145 billion USD, marking an 18.11% increase compared to the same period in 2024. Import turnover was estimated at $ 804 million, a 17.15% increase, which helped the province maintain a positive trade balance.

The effectiveness of professional models of association and group in Tan Lac district

The lives of the ethnic minority farmers in Tan Lac district have gradually improved thanks to the new directions in agricultural production. This is a testament to the collective strength fostered through the professional associations and groups implemented by various levels of the district’s Farmers’ Union.

Building the brand of Muong village clean food

With the motto the "product quality comes first,” after nearly one year of establishment and operation, Muong village’s Clean Food Agricultural and Commercial Cooperative, located in Cau Hamlet, Hung Son Commune (Kim Boi district), has launched reputable, high-quality agricultural products to the market that are well-received by consumers. The products such as Muong village’s pork sausage, salt-cured chicken, and salt-cured pork hocks have gradually carved out a place in the market and they are on the path to obtaining the OCOP certification.

Hoa Binh ethnic farmers join forces through collective economic models

In the past, the phrase "bumper harvest, rock-bottom prices" was a familiar refrain for Vietnamese farmers engaged in fragmented, small-scale agriculture. But today, a new spirit is emerging across rural areas of Hoa Binh province - one of collaboration, organisation, and collective economic models that provide a stable foundation for production.

Maintaining farming area codes: Key to bringing Hoa Binh farm produce to global market

Maintaining growing area codes and packing facility codes in accordance with regulations is a mandatory requirement for agricultural products to be eligible for export. Recently, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Hoa Binh province has intensified technical supervision of designated farming areas and packing facilities to safeguard the "green passport" that enables its products to access international markets.
