Expanding the industrial ecosystem
In recent years, Hung Yen has emerged as a bright spot in industrial development in the Northern region, especially with the system of industrial zones and clusters increasingly expanding. Thanks to effective preferential mechanisms and policies, in the period 2020-2025, the province's economy recorded outstanding development, creating a solid foundation for long-term growth.
Specifically, the whole province has formed 11 more industrial parks, an increase of 3.4 times compared to the previous period; and at the same time added 26 industrial clusters, bringing the total number to 74 clusters with an area of more than 3,931 ha. Of which, 34 clusters have been put into operation, gradually forming a diverse production network, suitable for many types of businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises.
In parallel with that, Hung Yen has attracted 559 more projects, raising the total number of valid projects to 2,478 projects with a total registered capital of 396 trillion VND and 9,463 million USD. The number of businesses entering the market has also increased sharply, averaging about 1,200 businesses per year in the period 2021-2025.
Currently, the province has 1 economic zone and 23 industrial parks with a total area of over 5,890 hectares, reaching a occupancy rate of nearly 65%.
These figures show the increasing attractiveness of the investment environment in the locality, and also reflect the trend of production shifting to areas with synchronous infrastructure and competitive costs.
Creating jobs, improving lives from industrial clusters
Not only playing the role of "magnet" to attract investment capital, industrial clusters in Hung Yen also directly create thousands of jobs, contributing to shifting labor structure and improving people's lives.
Recently, the Provincial People's Committee decided to establish 4 new industrial clusters including Minh Hai 2, Van Nhue, Bac Son 1 and Bac Son 2. The investment in infrastructure of these industrial clusters aims to create a clean land fund, ready to welcome investors, and at the same time create more job opportunities for local workers.
Notably, Bac Son 1 and Bac Son 2 industrial clusters, each cluster of 75 hectares, with a total investment of nearly 1,900 billion VND, are oriented to develop light and high-tech industries such as pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, biotechnology, automation, electronic component manufacturing... These are fields with high added value, contributing to improving the quality of labor and income for people.
In fact, many industrial clusters have shown clear effectiveness. Typically, Hung Nhan Industrial Cluster (Long Hung commune) with an area of 44 hectares has attracted 20 investors, reaching a 100% occupancy rate. The main industries include garment, electronics, mechanics, toy manufacturing...
It is expected that by 2027, when the entire enterprise goes into operation, this industrial cluster will create stable jobs for more than 4,000 workers.
According to Mr. Ninh Viet Sy - Director of Management and Supervision Consulting of Hung Nhan Industrial Cluster, the technical infrastructure here has been synchronously invested, from wastewater treatment systems to electricity, water, and transportation. In particular, the selection of investors is strictly implemented, prioritizing businesses using clean energy, minimizing polluting sources.
In the context of increasingly fierce competition to attract investment, the development of industrial clusters in a modern and sustainable direction will continue to be the "key" for Hung Yen to maintain its growth momentum, towards the goal of becoming a smart industrial province in the future.
