The bus station has been upgraded, expanded and attracted many businesses to exploit, thereby meeting the travel and freight transport needs of the people.”

Loc Ninh is home to a large population of over 32,000 people from all over the country. Along with that, the large number of people passing by means of the increasing demand for consumption and shopping, opening up space for Loc Ninh to strongly develop the service business industry.

Focus on developing trade and services

Loc Ninh commune was established on the basis of merging Loc Ninh town, Loc Thuan commune and Loc Thai commune, with a total natural area of ​​over 73.42km2. Although being purely agricultural localities, after the merger, the proportion of trade and services still accounts for 24% of the commune's economic structure. Trade and services always achieve good growth. Services are widely developed. Basic goods are stable, promptly meeting the consumption and production needs of people in the commune and neighboring localities.

The Resolution of the 1st Congress of the Party Committee of Loc Ninh Commune, term 2025-2030, determined to strongly shift the proportion of trade and services in the economic structure of the commune. In 2025 alone, Loc Ninh strives to achieve total retail service revenue of 2,265 billion VND. This goal is concretized by Loc Ninh through programs and plans that have been and are being implemented.

Loc Ninh is a land bearing the mark of revolution, the resistance capital during the resistance war against the US to save the country. Along with its strategic location, there are also many large projects of the province that have been planned and implemented. From its potential strengths, along with open investment attraction policies, Loc Ninh will certainly become a border city, a bright spot of trade, services, and tourism of Dong Nai province in the near future.
