Thai Business Leaders Look to WHA Industrial Zone 1 – Nghe An for Fresh Investment Opportunities

Last February, H.E. Mr. Tanee Sangrat, Ambassador of Thailand to Vietnam, and the Thailand Board of Investment (BOI) accompanied a delegation of business leaders and investors to Vietnam to attend the “Meeting with Investors Conference at Lunar New Year 2019” in Nghe An Province.

The BOI exploratory trip enabled delegates to observe business and investment opportunities in the province of Nghe An. One of the main highlights was a visit to the WHA Industrial Zone 1 – Nghe An, a state-of-the-art industrial zone that offers land, warehouses, industrial units and well-designed ready-built factories to local and international investors. With an initial investment of USD 100 million, the construction and development of “WHA Industrial Zone – Nghe An” Phase 1, representing 498 hectares out of a potential total of 3,200 hectares, is well underway. The company is now ready to welcome its first customers in different sectors including automotive, textile, electronics, consumer, logistics and many others. The delegation was also given an extensive tour at Royal Foods manufacturing facility and other destinations as part of its mission.

While providing world-class facilities and services to its customers, WHA Industrial Zone 1 - Nghe An will hone the same highest standards and practices as in WHA’s 10 industrial estates in operation in Thailand, including caring for local communities and paying great attention to environmental protection and social development.

During the visit, Mr David Nardone, Group Executive Industrial and International, WHA Industrial Development, explained, “WHA’s expansion in Vietnam brings three decades of knowledge and experience with the best global practices in environmentally sustainable industrial development. We are proud of this landmark project that will be the largest world-class industrial zone in North Central Vietnam, we look forward to welcoming investors who need a foothold in this vibrant local and regional market.”
