Japan alone has 279 projects with a total investment capital of over 5.7 billion USD, continuing to hold the third position in terms of total investment capital in the province. The strong development of the FDI business community in general and Japanese businesses in particular has made important contributions to economic growth, job creation and promoting the development of supporting industries in Dong Nai.

During their operations, Vietnamese enterprises always wish to expand cooperation opportunities with foreign enterprises, including Japanese enterprises. At the same time, according to a survey by the Japan Business Association and the Coordinating Group, many Japanese enterprises are eager to find Vietnamese partners to proactively source supplies. However, finding suitable partners is still difficult.

Therefore, connecting direct trade between Vietnamese and Japanese enterprises is very important, opening up opportunities for long-term cooperation, and jointly solving difficulties in the supply chain. In the most recent trade exchange, many meetings were held and a number of contracts were signed, creating the premise for sustainable cooperation.
