Hưng Yên is pushing the formation of a free economic zone (FEZ) with a strategic vision to make it one of the most dynamic, open and investor-friendly economic zones in Southeast Asia.
With a total investment of VNĐ429 billion (nearly US$16.5 million), GO! Hưng Yên spans 16,000 square metres and is the 43rd shopping centre operated by Central Retail Vietnam nationwide.
This high-profile project is set to boost economic growth, enhance tourism in the Red River Delta and become a landmark symbol of the Việt Nam-US strategic partnership.
It''s harvest season for Hưng Yên Province''s signature longans, and several farming cooperatives with unique production unit codes are eager to export their produce.
Hưng Yên Province People’s Committee has joined with Central Retail Việt Nam to organise a promotion week for Lồng longans and local farm produces at the 22 supermarkets of the retailer.
By 2030, Hưng Yên will have 30 industrial parks over a total area of about 9,589ha, including 17 IPs under the planning approved by the Prime Minister and 13 newly planned IPs.
With an area of nearly 200 hectares, the industrial park has currently attracted 12 investment projects, including 10 Taiwanese enterprises with registered capital of about $150 million.
Japan is now the province''s leading source of foreign investment, with 173 valid projects worth over $4 billion, accounting for 61 per cent of total foreign investment registered in the locality, he said.
