3 levers to turn Do Luong into the new 'commercial capital' of Nghe An

Transport upgrades boost regional trade

In recent years, transportation has played a key role in the commercial development strategy of Do Luong district. In the context that the western districts of Nghe An still lack many important connections, the simultaneous appearance of major routes in Do Luong district is considered a "strategic boost", turning this locality into a link in the regional network of exchanges and trade.

A typical example is the N5 crossroad (National Highway 7C) over 63 km long, the main axis connecting the western districts of Nghe An such as Tan Ky, Anh Son, Con Cuong, Ky Son... with the Southeast Economic Zone to Cua Lo international port cluster. This route has an important intersection in Hoa Son commune, Do Luong district. Here, drivers can go from National Highway 1 and Provincial Road 537C to Ho Chi Minh Road, to Nam Can International Border Gate (Ky Son), expanding access to the international market.

Along with that, the National Highway 7A section Dien Chau - Yen Thanh - Do Luong with a length of 27.5 km and an investment of more than 1,300 billion VND is being accelerated for upgrading. This is considered an urgent project, connecting with the North - South Expressway, improving the exploitation capacity on the transport corridor from Nam Can International Border Gate to the coastal localities of the Central region, creating a great driving force in socio-economic development.

The highlight of the traffic picture is Do Cung bridge, the new connecting axis between Do Luong and Thanh Chuong - one of the most populous districts with high purchasing power in Nghe An. The bridge was built in a position suitable for the traffic development orientation in the region, an important traffic route connecting National Highway 46B, 46C, National Highway 7 and Ho Chi Minh Road. Thanks to its convenience, the number of people and traders moving to the center of Do Luong has increased significantly, creating a vibrant commercial flow through the two districts.

Modern and synchronized commercial infrastructure

In addition to transportation, synchronous commercial infrastructure is also a factor that helps Do Luong shape its role as a major trading center in the region. Typically, the new Do Luong market, after 4 years of operation, has become a symbol of modern trade with more than 1,000 stable and professional business households. The market also plays a role in shaping modern consumer habits and shopping behavior with diverse products, scientific area classification, clean and civilized space, enhancing the shopping experience, attracting a large number of consumers from neighboring districts.

Not only a place for trading goods, the market also contributes to changing the appearance of the town: from the expanded inner-city road system, spacious sidewalks, to the explosive development of food and beverage services, banks... around the area. These things demonstrate a commercial center that not only sells goods but also creates a new urban space.

According to information from the management board, phase 2 of the project promises to upgrade Do Luong market from a "commercial area" to an integrated commercial and entertainment center, with rows of modern shophouses, a bustling culinary area and a nighttime entertainment space, bringing Do Luong step by step into the "nighttime economy" model - a trend of developed cities, where shopping services do not stop when the sun goes down.

Sustainable resources thanks to special financial policies

Not only infrastructure, policy is also one of the outstanding advantages of Do Luong in recent years. Accordingly, Do Luong district is allowed to retain 100% of land use fees for more than 25 hectares of planned residential land in the town and Yen Son, Van Son, and Lac Son communes. This is an important financial resource to help the locality proactively invest in infrastructure, urban embellishment, and at the same time, continue to develop modern commercial and service areas without having to depend on the higher-level budget.

Having a circulating capital flow right in the locality will ensure long-term, continuous and rapid development in the context of the rapidly increasing demand for expanding commercial space, helping Do Luong become an attractive destination for investors in commercial and service real estate.

Combining connecting infrastructure, modern commercial space and proactive financial policy, Do Luong is “changing its clothes” with new colors of a dynamic commercial city. Do Luong will soon be the place where all trade routes converge, all capital flows in, all development expectations are awakened, gradually realizing the dream of “Commercial Capital” of Western Nghe An.
