Dong Nai City is emerging as one of Vietnam’s most strategically important destinations for industrial investment, manufacturing, logistics, aviation, international trade and large-scale foreign direct investment.
Following the merger of the former Dong Nai and Binh Phuoc provinces in 2025 and the establishment of Dong Nai as a centrally governed city in 2026, the new municipality has entered an entirely different stage of development.
Today, Dong Nai combines:
MATURE INDUSTRIAL BASE + LARGE-SCALE DEVELOPMENT LAND + LONG THANH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT + DEEP-WATER PORT ACCESS + EXPRESSWAY NETWORK + CAMBODIAN BORDER + HO CHI MINH CITY MARKET
The result is one of the most diversified industrial and logistics investment platforms in Vietnam.

These indicators position Dong Nai among Vietnam’s most important industrial economies and reinforce its role as a major manufacturing and logistics gateway for Southern Vietnam.
The creation of the new Dong Nai City is much more than an administrative restructuring.
It creates a new economic geography.
The former Dong Nai Province contributed one of Vietnam’s most mature manufacturing ecosystems, characterized by decades of foreign investment, established industrial parks, international manufacturers, skilled industrial labor and sophisticated supply chains.
The former Binh Phuoc Province contributes something equally valuable: development space.
Its large land resources, emerging industrial parks, agricultural economy, logistics corridors and Cambodian border provide significant long-term expansion capacity.
Together, the two territories create an extraordinary north–south investment corridor stretching from the Cambodian border to Ho Chi Minh City, Long Thanh International Airport and the international seaport system.

This creates an integrated industrial–logistics corridor unlike almost any other investment location in Vietnam.
Dong Nai City borders:
This strategic geography connects four major economic directions.
Direct access to Vietnam’s largest economic, financial, commercial and consumer market.
Access to Phuoc An Port and the Cai Mep–Thi Vai deep-water port system, connecting manufacturers directly with international shipping routes.
Expressway and national highway corridors connect Dong Nai with the Central Highlands and South-Central Coast.
The Hoa Lu International Border Gate provides access toward Cambodia and creates opportunities for cross-border manufacturing, logistics and trade.
Dong Nai therefore functions not simply as an industrial location, but as a regional supply-chain gateway.
Industrialization has defined Dong Nai for decades.
Following the administrative expansion, the city now possesses one of Vietnam’s largest industrial development portfolios.
Approximately 89 industrial parks are planned, with 44 industrial parks already in operation.
The broader industrial ecosystem has attracted investors from approximately 45 countries and territories.
Major industries include:
This diversity creates substantial opportunities for both OEM manufacturers and companies operating within supporting supply chains.
Dong Nai offers investors two fundamentally different industrial location strategies.
Major established and emerging industrial locations include:
These locations offer excellent access to established suppliers, Ho Chi Minh City, Long Thanh International Airport and international ports.
They are particularly attractive for:
High-tech manufacturing – electronics – semiconductors – aerospace supporting industries – automotive – precision engineering – export manufacturing – logistics.
The territory of the former Binh Phuoc Province adds major industrial destinations including:
This region can be particularly attractive for projects requiring:
This gives investors the ability to choose between premium logistics connectivity in the south and large-scale expansion capacity in the north — within the same city.
Dong Nai entered its new administrative era with a substantial economic foundation.
In 2025, GRDP reached approximately:
Annual economic growth reached:
This represented one of Dong Nai’s strongest growth performances in recent years.
The city ranked among Vietnam’s largest local economies, with industry and construction continuing to serve as its dominant economic engine.
Industrial production, manufacturing exports, logistics and foreign investment remain fundamental pillars of economic growth.
Dong Nai is not an emerging FDI destination starting from zero.
It is an established international manufacturing platform.
Investors from approximately 45 countries and territories have established operations across its industrial ecosystem.
In 2025, Dong Nai attracted more than:
The city has accumulated tens of billions of dollars in registered foreign investment across thousands of projects.
Major international investors have historically come from:
The investment profile is increasingly shifting toward higher-value industries such as:
Semiconductors – electronics – precision manufacturing – advanced engineering – supporting industries – logistics – automation – green manufacturing.
This transition is strategically important.
Dong Nai is evolving from a traditional manufacturing center into an increasingly sophisticated advanced industrial and global supply-chain hub.
Dong Nai is deeply integrated into global trade.
In 2025:
Exports: approximately USD 34.64 billion
Imports: approximately USD 23.89 billion
Trade surplus: approximately USD 10.7 billion
The scale of international trade reflects the city’s strong export-manufacturing base and its integration with global supply chains.
Key export industries include:
At the center of Dong Nai’s future development is Long Thanh International Airport.
Located on approximately 5,000 hectares, Long Thanh is designed as one of Vietnam’s most important international aviation gateways.
25 million passengers/year
1.2 million tonnes of cargo/year
100 million passengers/year
5 million tonnes of cargo/year
Long Thanh is designed to become not simply an airport, but the core of an entire airport-driven economic ecosystem.
Potential investment sectors surrounding the airport include:
The Long Thanh area is therefore expected to become one of Southern Vietnam’s most important new economic growth poles.
One of Dong Nai’s greatest competitive advantages is the proximity between industrial parks, Long Thanh International Airport and major seaports.
Phuoc An Port has become a strategic maritime gateway for Dong Nai.
Phase 1 has been operational since 2024 and includes:
When fully developed, the port is planned to reach approximately:
8 million TEUs/year
Phuoc An is located less than approximately 30 km from Long Thanh International Airport, creating the foundation for an integrated sea–air logistics corridor.
Dong Nai also benefits from fast access to the Cai Mep–Thi Vai deep-water port system — one of Vietnam’s most important international maritime gateways.
The completion of strategic road and bridge connections will further integrate:
LONG THANH AIRPORT ↔ PHUOC AN PORT ↔ CAI MEP–THI VAI ↔ GLOBAL SHIPPING NETWORK
For export manufacturers, this is an exceptionally important competitive advantage.
Dong Nai is becoming one of Vietnam’s most important expressway intersections.
Major operational, completed, expanding or developing corridors include:
The primary high-speed connection between Ho Chi Minh City, Long Thanh and the eastern economic corridor.
A strategic connection linking Dong Nai, Long Thanh Airport and the major maritime logistics corridor toward Cai Mep–Thi Vai.
Creates a direct east–west connection toward the Mekong Delta without requiring freight traffic to pass through central Ho Chi Minh City.
Connects Dong Nai toward Binh Thuan and Vietnam’s South-Central Coast.
Strengthens connectivity toward the northeastern part of Dong Nai and the Central Highlands corridor.
Creates a major new industrial corridor toward northern Dong Nai.
Strengthens connections between Dong Nai and the Central Highlands.
Improves metropolitan connectivity and industrial freight circulation.
Expected to create another strategic logistics ring connecting industrial areas, ports and major regional transportation corridors.
Together, these projects fundamentally reshape Dong Nai’s logistics competitiveness.
The expanded Dong Nai City now extends to the Cambodian border.
The Hoa Lu International Border Gate creates opportunities for:
The planned high-capacity transport corridor toward Hoa Lu has the potential to strengthen the connection:
HO CHI MINH CITY → CHON THANH → NORTHERN DONG NAI → HOA LU → CAMBODIA
This creates another strategic dimension unavailable to traditional industrial locations concentrated solely around Ho Chi Minh City.
Because Dong Nai covers more than 12,700 km², actual distances vary significantly depending on the selected industrial park.
For preliminary investment planning, investors can consider the following strategic reference corridors:
| Strategic Connection | Approximate Reference |
|---|---|
| Long Thanh Airport → Phuoc An Port | 25–30 km |
| Long Thanh Area → Cai Mep–Thi Vai Port Corridor | Approx. 30–50 km, depending on destination |
| Long Thanh → Ho Chi Minh City Eastern Gateway | Approx. 30–40 km |
| Trấn Biên/Bien Hoa Area → Ho Chi Minh City | Approx. 30 km |
| Southern Dong Nai Industrial Belt → Long Thanh Airport | Approx. 10–50 km, depending on industrial park |
| Northern Dong Nai → Hoa Lu International Border Gate | Location-dependent |
| Ho Chi Minh City → Hoa Lu Economic Zone Corridor | Approx. 118 km under the planned expressway corridor |
Important: Industrial site selection should always be evaluated according to the exact factory location, cargo route, port terminal, airport terminal, workforce catchment area and supplier network rather than provincial-level distance alone.

For international manufacturers, this established industrial labor market can substantially reduce the challenges associated with entering a completely undeveloped manufacturing region.
Northern Dong Nai inherits one of Southern Vietnam’s major agricultural production territories.
Key agricultural resources include:
This creates significant investment opportunities in:
The combination of large-scale agriculture and advanced manufacturing provides Dong Nai with a diversified economic structure rarely found in major industrial cities.
Dong Nai’s next development cycle is increasingly focused on quality rather than simply industrial quantity.
Priority investment trends include:
Industrial projects using advanced technology, efficient land utilization and sustainable production systems are expected to play an increasingly important role.
One of the strongest advantages of the enlarged Dong Nai is that investors can select locations according to two very different investment strategies.

Dong Nai should be evaluated as a strategic location rather than simply another industrial province.
Choosing a province is only the beginning.
The critical decision is selecting the right industrial park, right land parcel, right factory, right legal structure and right logistics configuration.
TTTFIC Group supports international investors throughout the industrial investment lifecycle in Vietnam.
Whether your project requires:
2,000 m² of ready-built factory
or
200 hectares for an integrated manufacturing complex,
the right location depends on far more than rental price or land cost.
TTTFIC Group evaluates the complete investment equation:
LAND + FACTORY + LABOR + POWER + WATER + LOGISTICS + PORT + AIRPORT + SUPPLIERS + LICENSING + ENVIRONMENT + FIRE SAFETY + EXPANSION + TOTAL INVESTMENT COST
Our objective is not simply to find property.
Our objective is to identify the industrial location capable of supporting the investor’s business for the long term.
