Dong Nai to develop additional new industrial parks

(ĐN)- Amid a growing shortage of industrial land, the Government has approved Dong Nai’s proposal to develop several new industrial parks (IPs), including large-scale and strategic ones. Following the recent administrative merger, the newly established Dong Nai now has the spatial conditions to expand and invest in new IPs across the province.

As early as 2025, some IPs are expected to break ground. Together with others currently underway, these new parks will allow Dong Nai to better meet the growing demand for land from investors.

Numerous projects await launch

Among the most anticipated projects are those under KN Investment Group, which owns Golf Long Thanh. Key IPs include Long Duc 3, Xuan Que - Song Nhan (phase 1), and Bau Can - Tan Hiep (phase 1). With significant capital investments, these IPs are expected to make important contributions to the province's development.

Specifically, the Long Duc 3 IP covers more than 244 hectares and received investment policy approval from the Prime Minister in July 2023. The project has an estimated infrastructure investment of VND 1.6 trillion. Both the Bau Can - Tan Hiep and Xuan Que - Song Nhan IPs cover 1,000 hectares each and are located near Long Thanh International Airport. Each project requires about VND 9 trillion in infrastructure investment. Collectively, they are projected to attract around US$12.7 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) and generate employment for 80,000–90,000 workers.

In the first half of 2025, Dong Nai lured more than US$ 1.4 billion in FDI. Once the Long Thanh hi-tech IP and other newly approved projects begin construction, the province will be well-positioned to accommodate large-scale investment from multinational corporations from late 2025 onward.

According to General Director Le Nu Thuy Duong of Tan Hiep IP JSC, the company hopes to receive support in site clearance and planning for transportation links, energy infrastructure, and water supply for production. The investor has registered to begin construction within 2025.

Beyond these three projects, the Phuoc An IP has already been publicly announced, with the provincial People’s Committee approving its 1/2,000 zoning plan. Long Duc IP phase 2 also received investment approval in February 2025.

In addition to areas traditionally known for industrial development, the former Binh Phuoc province hosts a number of IPs under planning and study. Dong Nam Dong Phu IP is one such project, being proposed by Techtra Infrastructure Development JSC in Binh Phuoc ward. The project covers roughly 2,000 hectares, and the investor has also requested access to an additional 310 hectares nearby for resettlement and social housing development.

Chairman Tran Quoc Nguyen of Techtra Infrastructure Development JSC stated that the company has secured financial resources to implement the project. The firm is seeking early registration and approval as a developer once the general zoning plan is ratified. With both experience and funding in place, the company is committed to fast-tracking the project to put it into operation as soon as possible, contributing to local economic growth.

Meeting industrial land demand of investors

Dong Nai remains a top destination for businesses seeking factory locations. However, with limited available industrial land, the province faces constraints in its investment attraction efforts.

Perspective view of Phuoc An IP.

Following the administrative merger, Dong Nai now has expanded resources and land area to attract large-scale investors both domestically and internationally. Investors continue to show strong interest in the province, especially when comparing it with other regions.

Recently, Coherent Group inaugurated a facility in Nhon Trach commune. General Director Nguyen Minh Man of Coherent Vietnam shared that Coherent Corp is a global corporation from the United States and has been present in Vietnam since 2005. The new facility in Dong Nai forms part of the group’s strategy to build regional centers of excellence, integrating advanced technological capabilities, fostering cross-functional collaboration, and supporting the company's comprehensive transformation in silicon carbide and optics. These technologies are essential for the modernization of industrial systems, high-speed communications, and data center infrastructure.

To ensure sustainable development, Dong Nai will take a selective approach in investment attraction. The province will prioritize industrial sectors such as mechanical engineering, chemicals, electronics, high technology, and supporting industries aligned with its strategic development priorities. There is also a clear direction to promote specialized, high-tech, and eco-industrial parks, as well as projects with deep investment to enhance product value chains and elevate the province’s image and standing.
