Besides, large trade corporations from the U.S, Japan, Singapore, Thailand and Italy have recently visited Dong Nai to seek investment opportunities.
Dong Nai has established connection with several US groups in retail and marketing industries, such as Target and Made in USA Works, to not only gain more access for its goods to the US market but also cut costs from middlemen.
Accordingly, Dong Nai Business Association and Made in USA Works have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for their cooperation. Chris Neeley from Made in USA Works hoped that local enterprises would produce high-quality goods at reasonable cost and with higher productivity in order to make inroad into the US market.
The value of retail sales and services enjoyed an annual growth of 17% per year in 2011-2015. During the last five years, the province built additional 19 markets, bringing total number of traditional markets to 166.
