On April 2, Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh, alongside King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium, attended the grand opening of a modern Service Office Complex at the Bac Tien Phong Industrial Zone (IZ). The project was invested in by DEEP C Industrial Zones and Hateco Group.
The Bac Tien Phong and Nam Tien Phong Industrial Zones, both invested in by DEEP C in Quang Ninh, are oriented to become a leading-scale, world-class modern industrial, seaport, and logistics hub in Vietnam and internationally.
The opening of this modern Service Office Complex at Bac Tien Phong IZ marks a new milestone in completing the utility ecosystem and support services for investors in this industrial zone specifically, and the Quang Yen Coastal Economic Zone in general. It also strongly reaffirms DEEP C’s commitment to long-term, professional investment and synchronized infrastructure development in Quang Ninh Province.
With a total investment of 5 million USD, all construction components were completed after 14 months of construction. This office model is built and deployed according to sustainability criteria aimed at reducing CO2 emissions into the environment, fulfilling international green building standards. In addition, the Service Office Complex comes fully equipped with high-quality accompanying amenities.
Quang Ninh serves as a strategic gateway connecting Vietnam with ASEAN and China, backed by an infrastructure network that receives continuous, synchronized, and modern investment. This is particularly true for its transport infrastructure (highways, seaports, airports), urban infrastructure, tourism, and services.
In recent years, Quang Ninh has consistently maintained double-digit economic growth, leading the nation in the Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI). It continues to be a bright spot for economic development and political stability with a consistent foreign policy, serving as a safe, stable, and reliable destination for international friends and partners.
Quang Ninh has solidified its position as an attractive investment destination through robust planning and development of its system of industrial zones and economic zones. Notably, Quang Ninh is one of the few localities nationwide that currently hosts 5 economic zones featuring both models: coastal economic zones and border-gate economic zones, spanning a total area of approximately 380,000 hectares. Concurrently, the province has planning in place to develop 23 industrial zones with a total area of nearly 19,000 hectares.
To date, 9 industrial zones have been established in Quang Ninh, and the province has attracted over 200 FDI projects with total registered investment capital of over 16 billion USD, including projects from European investors (including Belgium). By investing in these industrial zones and economic zones, investors will benefit from the best investment incentive mechanisms and policies provided by the Government and Quang Ninh Province, creating a truly attractive investment environment.
Regarding industrial clusters (ICs), Quang Ninh currently has 11 ICs with a total area of 577.55 hectares. Among them, 6 ICs have completed their technical infrastructure and entered operation with a total area of 375.39 hectares. The remaining 5 ICs are currently undergoing infrastructure investment, including: Dong Mai IC (Quang Yen Town), Van Don IC (Van Don District), Trang An IC (Dong Trieu City), Yen Than IC (Tien Yen District), and East Dam Ha B IC (Dam Ha District).
This strong foundation has helped Quang Ninh’s industrial and economic zones attract attention and become the trusted choice for many prestigious international investors over the years. Within this context, Quang Ninh acknowledges and highly appreciates the active companionship and contributions of Belgian investors. A prime example is the pioneering role of DEEP C and its partners, with large-scale projects being effectively implemented in the Quang Yen Coastal Economic Zone, including the Bac Tien Phong IZ (1,193 hectares) and Nam Tien Phong IZ (487 hectares).
Up to the present moment, the Bac Tien Phong and Nam Tien Phong Industrial Zones have attracted nearly 3 billion USD in investment capital from secondary investors. Quang Ninh Province is also actively supporting investors in site clearance, finalizing industrial zone infrastructure, and attracting further secondary investment projects.
With a clear vision, superior infrastructure, and a commitment to sustainability, these industrial zones play a pivotal role in attracting high-quality investment, creating a powerful economic growth engine for Quang Ninh Province.
Also within the framework of the program, the King, Queen, and the delegation from the Kingdom of Belgium were briefed on the potentials and strengths of Quang Ninh Province, including the DEEP C Industrial Zone complex in Quang Yen Town. Accordingly, leveraging its special potential and advantages, Quang Ninh has attracted over 200 foreign direct investment projects from 20 countries and territories with a total investment capital of over 16 billion USD, including many investors from the European Union.
Earlier that same morning on April 2, King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of the Kingdom of Belgium, along with their delegation, arrived for a working visit to Quang Ninh.
King Philippe of Belgium expressed his deep impression and congratulated Quang Ninh on its socio-economic development achievements. He noted that Quang Ninh possesses immense potential and major advantages, creating new cooperation opportunities between European countries in general and the Kingdom of Belgium in particular. Highly evaluating the province’s proposals, the King affirmed that he would connect businesses and investors to elevate cooperation programs with Vietnam in general and Quang Ninh in particular to new heights. He also requested that Quang Ninh Province continue to create favorable conditions for Belgian businesses to seek investment and cooperation opportunities, especially in logistics and seaport development.
