The Prime Minister approved Decision No. 1320/QD-TTg on November 4, 2022, endorsing the investment plan for the expanded Quang Chau Industrial Park (IP) in Bac Giang province. Saigon-Bac Giang Industrial Park Joint Stock Company (SBG), a subsidiary of Kinh Bac Urban Development Corporation (KBC), received approval as the investor.
The project covers a 90-hectare land area in Quang Chau commune, Viet Yen district, Bac Giang province, with a total investment capital of 996 billion Vietnamese dong. Its operational period starts from the investment approval date and lasts until February 5, 2057.
Quang Chau IP is a modern architectural complex consisting of an industrial zone, an urban area, and a utility and service area. The expansion approved in 2022 increased the park’s total area from 426 to 516 hectares. The existing 426-hectare IP is fully occupied by industrial land, attracting 41 investment projects, including 37 FDI projects and 4 domestic investment projects, with a total investment capital of 2.8 billion USD. These projects have created job opportunities for around 67,000 workers. Renowned corporations such as Foxconn, Luxshare-ICT, JA Solar, Siflex, Samkwang, Crystal Martin, and Lens have made notable investments.
The recent expansion, covering over 90 hectares, has attracted significant interest from major investors. The anticipated occupancy rate is over 90%, with many parties conducting surveys and registering for lease agreements. Foxconn Group, a prominent subsidiary of Apple, conducted site surveys and signed a Memorandum of Understanding with SBG in August 2022 to lease 50.5 hectares of land for an investment project focused on producing Apple products in Bac Giang province, Vietnam. The project’s investment capital exceeds 300 million USD. This project holds great importance for both Vietnam and Bac Giang province.
