Authorities in the southern province of Dong Nai granted investment certificates to three major foreign-invested projects on February 5, 2026. With a total registered capital of nearly $550 million, this surge highlights the increasing appeal of FDI in Dong Nai for global manufacturers seeking stable growth in Southeast Asia.
The latest approvals include two brand-new projects from Singaporean investors and a significant capital expansion by a prominent Chinese enterprise.
Singaporean Investors Boost FDI in Dong Nai
Among the newly licensed projects, Jabil Technology Vietnam Company Limited (Singapore) is leading the high-tech wave with an $80 million investment. Located at the Nhon Trach II–Nhon Phu Industrial Park, the facility focuses on high-value electronics manufacturing, including:
-
Computers and data storage devices
-
Communications equipment
-
High-end consumer electronics
Additionally, the Sembcorp Integrated Hub Dong Nai 1 project was officially approved at the Loc An–Binh Son Industrial Park. With a registered capital of $69.65 million, this project will develop ready-built factories and essential supporting infrastructure, further strengthening the ecosystem for FDI in Dong Nai.
Massive $400 Million Expansion by HAOHUA Vietnam
The largest contribution to the current capital flow comes from the HAOHUA (Vietnam) Tire Manufacturing Plant. Already a major player at the Minh Hung–Sikico Industrial Park, the Chinese-invested company has been approved to add $400 million to its existing operations.
This expansion brings HAOHUA’s total investment to $900 million, making it a cornerstone of industrial FDI in Dong Nai. This move reflects a broader trend of existing investors reinvesting in the region due to favorable logistics and provincial support.
Outlook for Industrial Parks in 2026
According to official data from the Ministry of Planning and Investment, Dong Nai continues to be a top destination for international capital. The province is currently home to 58 industrial parks, with 43 already operational.
Covering more than 14,600 hectares and maintaining an average occupancy rate of 76%, these zones provide the primary infrastructure for FDI in Dong Nai. As the province streamlines administrative procedures, experts predict a steady increase in high-tech and green energy projects throughout 2026.
