Vietnam is seeing significant industrial expansion driven by foreign direct investment (FDI) across different provinces. In Bac Ninh, the province attracted approximately $4.1 billion in FDI during the first nine months of 2026, with total import-export values reaching $178 billion. To mitigate a heavy reliance on foreign-invested enterprises, local authorities are focusing on administrative reforms and digital transformation. Programs such as the collaboration between the Bac Ninh People’s Committee and Samsung Vietnam have enabled local manufacturers to adopt smart factory technologies, reportedly increasing labor productivity by up to 40%.

In Da Nang, economic efforts are focused on attracting high-quality FDI in high-tech, manufacturing, and supporting industries to achieve double-digit growth. Notable developments include the second phase of a cleaning equipment factory by Karcher Vietnam Technology at the Tam Hiep Port and Logistics Industrial Park, representing an investment of roughly 484 billion VND. The Tam Hiep and Tam Thang industrial parks continue to host numerous projects with significant registered capital, contributing to regional employment.
