Introduction: You hear the names “Bac Ninh” and “Bac Giang” constantly in financial news. But to a Western buyer, they just sound like random provinces.
These two provinces, bordering Hanoi, are the global factory floor for electronics. If you are looking for a supplier, 80% of the best ones are inside these specific Industrial Parks (IPs).
1. Bac Ninh: The “Samsung Kingdom”
- Distance from Hanoi: 30km (45 mins).
- Key Industrial Parks: VSIP Bac Ninh, Yen Phong.
- The Vibe: Developed, clean, expensive. Samsung has been here for over a decade, building a massive supply chain ecosystem.
- Best For: High-precision electronics, clean manufacturing.
2. Bac Giang: The “Foxconn Frontier”
- Distance from Hanoi: 50km (1 hour).
- Key Industrial Parks: Van Trung, Quang Chau.
- The Vibe: This is the new boomtown. Foxconn and Luxshare (making Apple products) moved here because Bac Ninh ran out of land.
- Best For: Large scale assembly, slightly cheaper land than Bac Ninh.
3. Hai Phong: The “Logistics Hub”
- Distance from Hanoi: 100km (1.5 hours).
- Key Industrial Parks: DEEP C.
- The Vibe: Heavy industry and automotive (VinFast is here).
- Best For: Heavy machinery or goods that need immediate export (since the port is right there).
Conclusion: Don’t just say “I want a factory in Vietnam.” Be specific.
- Want established high-tech? Go Bac Ninh.
- Want massive scale? Go Bac Giang.
- Want easy shipping? Go Hai Phong.
