The strong development of technology and the increasing demand for electronics and electricity products have created great opportunities for businesses in the province. Enterprises have actively invested in expanding production, applying new technologies to improve productivity and product quality.
In particular, the textile and footwear industries also recorded significant growth, thanks to taking advantage of free trade agreements and exploiting new markets such as Africa and the Middle East.
However, some sectors are still facing difficulties. The electricity generation and distribution industry decreased by 8.7% due to the impact of the El Nino phenomenon, causing low electricity production in the first quarter. Although electricity demand has increased in the summer, output is not enough to cover the previous shortage. The mining industry also decreased by 9.3% due to many old mines expiring, while new mines have not yet come into operation.
However, in general, industrial production in Hai Duong still maintained a positive growth momentum in the first 5 months of 2025. Flexible management solutions, close direction of the government and efforts of enterprises create a solid foundation for the sustainable development of the local industry in the coming time.
