Currently, Hai Phong with 2 strategic economic zones (EZs) Dinh Vu - Cat Hai are operating effectively and the Southern coastal EZ Hai Phong is in the start-up phase, along with a network of 18 existing industrial parks (IZs) spread over an area of over 7,000 hectares, Hai Phong has successfully created a diverse, dynamic and attractive industrial ecosystem. This is not just a collection of individual production areas but a unified entity where infrastructure, service and production factors are closely connected, creating a favorable environment for investment and development.

It can be seen that the formation and strong development of this ecosystem has the strong imprint of professional and reputable industrial park infrastructure investors such as DEEP C Industrial Park Complex, Trang Due, VSIP Hai Phong , Nam Dinh Vu, Nam Cau Kien... These investors not only play a key role in attracting huge investment capital flows, both domestic and foreign, but also pioneer in bringing international standards in technical infrastructure, social infrastructure, business support services and applying modern and sustainable management processes.
This systematic investment has created a solid foundation, attracting a series of large-scale production projects in many key fields such as high-tech electronics, equipment manufacturing, precision mechanics, logistics, and supporting industries. Hai Phong has become the destination of many leading technology corporations in the world and the region such as LG, Pegatron, Kyocera, Fuji Xerox, Bridgestone, GE, Pegatron, USI, Flat... along with many investors in the fields of semiconductors, AI, and smart logistics.
The special highlight that creates outstanding competitive strength for Hai Phong's industrial ecosystem is the organic and close connection between Dinh Vu - Cat Hai Economic Zone with industrial parks and the Lach Huyen deep-water seaport system. This international gateway port, with berths 1 and 2 having been put into stable operation, has demonstrated outstanding efficiency, along with berths 3, 4, 5, 6 having started operation and the next berths from 7 to 12 are in the investment implementation roadmap. All have become and are becoming the most important logistics link in the North.
This seamless connection helps optimize the supply chain, minimize transportation costs, shorten delivery time, creating an undeniable competitive advantage for businesses operating here. Thanks to this economic zone - industrial park - seaport complex, Hai Phong has been affirming its position as a leading industrial and seaport service center in the region, an attractive destination for global investors looking for opportunities in Vietnam and Southeast Asia.
The city's industrial parks and economic zones have become reliable destinations for more than 840 investment projects with a total registered capital of nearly 48 billion USD. In particular, the average investment rate reached nearly 11 million USD/ha of industrial land, 2.2 times higher than the national average, demonstrating outstanding attractiveness for projects requiring high technology. The impressive continuous growth of the industrial production index (IIP) (an average of over 14% in the 2019-2024 period) not only reflects the vitality of the economy but also affirms the leading role of the industrial sectors.
The presence of the world's leading technology corporations such as LG Group (with an investment ecosystem of nearly 10 billion USD), Bridgestone (1.22 billion USD), Regina Miracle (1 billion USD), Pegatron (1 billion USD)... is not only about capital but also about technology cores, bringing with them R&D capacity, advanced production processes, innovative culture and strongly promoting the technology transfer process, improving management skills and especially forming a highly skilled workforce, meeting the requirements of the digital economy.

In addition, the establishment of the Southern Hai Phong Coastal Economic Zone, with a planning area of up to 20,000 hectares, is not simply an expansion of development space but truly marks a completely new chapter, a strategic turning point for the Port City. This Economic Zone is expected to become a new generation growth nucleus, a place where technology and investment resources converge, creating a strong economic momentum.
The potential of the Southern coastal economic zone is multiplied when placed in a comprehensive and international infrastructure development. The simultaneous formation of projects such as Tien Lang International Airport, Nam Do Son Deep-water Port system - international gateway and transit, along with the establishment of a Free Trade Zone with breakthrough and superior mechanisms and policies, will create a complex of the most modern industrial - service - urban development.
The complex promises to create unprecedented investment attraction, especially targeting high-tech projects, R&D centers, semiconductor industry, renewable energy, smart logistics services, and advanced marine economic sectors based on digital and sustainable platforms.

Looking to the future, Hai Phong has identified a clear development roadmap: It is a strong transition to an ecological, smart industrial park and economic zone model, applying digital technology extensively to infrastructure management, public services and business connections. Along with that, it is enhancing the key role of the industrial park and economic zone system so that the contribution rate to the total industrial production value and export turnover of the whole city reaches over 90%. The city aims to bring the manufacturing and processing industry to account for 55% of GRDP, and the proportion of high-tech industry to over 70%. The speed of technological innovation in enterprises is also expected to increase by 20-22% per year. At the same time, it is determined to attract high-quality FDI and domestic investment (DDI) flows, focusing on projects that create large added value and core technology.
