In February 2024, the Provincial People’s Committee issued a decision on the construction planning subdivision of a new industrial park with a ratio of 1/2000. The park is expected to attract 25,000 workers, with a total factory and enterprise area of 316.1 hectares, occupying 68% of the planned area for the industrial park.
The project’s investment capital was approved by the Prime Minister in April 2022, totaling over VND 5,198 billion, including nearly VND 780 billion in investor contributions, and the remainder being mobilized funds. According to the feasibility study report, the total investment is nearly VND 6,232 billion, of which the investor contributes nearly VND 935 billion.
As per the Prime Minister’s decision, the project is scheduled to be implemented from the second quarter of 2023 to the second quarter of 2025.

To make way for the project, 147 households had to be relocated to the 9.5-hectare Resettlement Area for the Loc Giang Industrial Park, built adjacent to the industrial park. The resettlement area was approved by the Provincial People’s Committee in August this year, with a detailed construction planning task at a ratio of 1/500. The recently published EIA Report in November revealed that compensation for land acquisition has been completed for an area of over 410 hectares, and compensation for the remaining area is ongoing.
