(HBO) – According to statistics from the Provincial People’s Committee, local industrial zones are home to 102 approved investment projects.
In
recent times, Antona joint-stock Company (Luong Son Industrial Zone) has maintained
stable production, providing employment for many local workers.
Among them, there are 27
foreign direct investment projects with total registered capital at 527.4
million USD and 75 domestic projects with registered investments worth 11,059.5
billion VND. In 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic left a devastating impact on
production. However, the businesses actively made adjustments with flexible
scenarios, maintaining stable production. Accordingly, the turnover from
production and trading activities of the enterprises set to reach 15,800
billion VND, an increase of 0.51% in comparison to last year.
With the aim of intensifying investment promotion, the Provincial
People’s Committee has lately directed the mobilization of all resources,
prioritizing off-budget investment, socializing development investment, and completing infrastructure systems in industrial zones and complexes.
The objective by the year 2050 is to increase the occupancy rate in
well-established industrial zones to over 80% while the total area of
industrial zones and complexes accounts for approximately 1% of the province’s
natural land area.
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.
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 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.
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.
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 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.
