To this end, the municipal People’s Committee will focus on assisting businesses in expanding markets. Associations and enterprises will receive support to exploit traditional markets and explore potential markets such as Northern Europe, Eastern Europe, West Asia, South Asia, Africa and Latin America.
The city will also promote the dissemination of information about Free Trade Agreements so that businesses can understand the challenges and opportunities to enhance the expansion of production and investment, chain links, markets, and exports. The effectiveness of trade promotion activities will be improved along with promoting consumption in the domestic market, reducing inventory and connecting domestic enterprises with foreign businesses to secure orders through fairs and exhibitions.
Hanoi will continue to provide support for domestic enterprises participating in the supply chains of FDI enterprises and large global enterprises. Businesses will be assisted in digital transformation, technology application and transfer, building smart factory models and green production as well as customs clearance procedures at border gates.

Regarding the development of production and business infrastructure, Hanoi will review and remove obstacles related to industrial clusters, managing to start construction of 20 industrial clusters in 2023.
