Phu Tho province continues to focus on improving the business environment and facilitating large-scale infrastructure development. Provincial leaders have held dialogues with approximately 150 businesses to address operational hurdles such as land access, administrative procedures, capital, and human resources. During a dialogue on September 23, 2026, Chairman Tran Duy Dong instructed officials to resolve matters within their authority immediately and avoid causing businesses to undergo repetitive administrative processes.

By the end of the third quarter of 2026, the province reported a GRDP growth of 10.01% compared to the same period the previous year. FDI has emerged as a primary driver, with the province attracting over $2.4 billion during the first nine months of 2026. To support infrastructure, the province is prioritizing land clearance for approximately 5,445 hectares. While the Hoa Binh - Moc Chau expressway project shows synchronized progress, the National Highway 2 (Vinh Yen - Viet Tri section) faces fragmented construction due to incomplete land handover.

Strategic shifts toward a green economy are also underway. The province is transitioning to high-quality wood forestry using FSC standards and has proposed a 50 billion VND national-level scientific project focused on circular economy models and low-emission agriculture. To reach Net Zero goals, an estimated 20,718 billion VND is expected to be allocated for technological solutions. Additionally, the tourism sector is expanding, with the province reporting 13.4 million visitors and nearly 13,700 billion VND in revenue during the first nine months of 2026, supported by major projects like a 21,000 billion VND hot spring resort complex.
