The Investment, Trade and Tourism Promotion Centre and the Export Processing and Industrial Zones Authority of the Mekong Delta city of Cần Thơ, organised a gathering between local authorities and Singaporean businesses on June 9.

Speaking at the event, held at the local Vietnam – Singapore Industrial Park (VSIP Cần Thơ), Director of the centre Nguyễn Thi Kiều Duyên said the programme provided an opportunity for Singaporean firms to gain a better understanding of the city's investment and business environment while also opening up prospects for cooperation between enterprises from both sides.

She noted that as an agency responsible for investment support and connectivity, the centre is committed to accompanying businesses throughout the process of exploring opportunities and implementing projects.

It will provide information in a timely, transparent and accurate manner; facilitate connections with relevant departments, agencies, localities and partners; and coordinate efforts to address difficulties and obstacles arising during operations.

“Cần Thơ understands that investors are concerned not only with market opportunities but also with stability, support and efficiency during project implementation.

"Therefore, the municipal authorities and promotion centre have always embraced the principle that the success of businesses is the success of the locality,” Duyên told Singaporean investors.

Leaw Wee Ming, general director of VSIP Cần Thơ, highly appreciated local authorities' support in organising the gathering, noting that it provided an opportunity for VSIP Cần Thơ to introduce its investment and cooperation environment to both Singaporean and Vietnamese enterprises.

VSIP Cần Thơ is seeking to attract investment in food processing, high-tech agricultural and aquatic product processing, supporting industries, precision engineering, electrical and electronics manufacturing, technological equipment, clean production industries, as well as logistics, warehousing, distribution centres and production support services.

He added the industrial park not only develops industrial infrastructure but also positions itself as a partner accompanying investors throughout the project implementation process.

During the working session, representatives of those operating in logistics, industry, legal services and other sectors presented their strengths and proposed investment incentives for enterprises.

On the occasion, VSIP Cần Thơ and the Southern Steel Company signed a memorandum of understanding, opening up opportunities for their future cooperation and development.

VSIP Cần Thơ was officially launched in Vĩnh Trinh commune in September 2023. Covering an area of 900 hectares, including nearly 300 hectares in Phase 1 with total investment of US$152 million, it is being developed under an integrated industry – urban – services model based on green, smart and sustainable criteria, fully aligned with the city’s development vision.

Earlier the same day, the Singaporean business delegation held a working session with leaders of the Cần Thơ People’s Committee to exchange information and explore chances to strengthen investment and business ties.
