SERIOUS DRINK SUPPLY LAND FOR HANDLING AVAILABLE
The demand for industrial real estate is going to be huge, however, according to CBRE experts, “the supply of industrial land ready for handover in industrial zones in both regions is in short supply”. This is a disadvantage of Vietnam’s industrial real estate and needs to be overcome in order to open the flow of capital into Vietnam.
The director of JLL Vietnam also said that the land fund for development of industrial parks in Vietnam is very limited, and the land fund with good transport infrastructure is even more limited. If you want to get land to expand industrial parks, there are also barriers. With the current infrastructure system, it is feared that Vietnam will not be able to meet all the requirements of many large foreign investors.
VnREA Deputy Secretary General emphasized that if Vietnam wants to attract and absorb the massive wave of FDI, it first needs to have stronger investment in land and infrastructure. With synchronous infrastructure, convenient transportation, and low logistics costs, only agricultural land will be converted into industrial land, and industrial parks and economic zones will be built to attract investors to Vietnam.
Currently, industrial parks and economic zones are concentrated in large economic regions such as the North and the South, while the Central region is a weak industrial development area, so Vietnam can invest in investment, construction of infrastructure and seaports to attract FDI enterprises into this area.
