Giang Quang Thinh Industrial Park

Giang Quang Thinh Industrial Zone is a large-scale planned industrial zone located in the Thieu Hoa area, Thanh Hoa province, situated near the North–South Expressway and the Thieu Giang interchange. This is one of the key industrial zones oriented for development to expand Thanh Hoa's industrial landscape beyond the Nghi Son Economic Zone.

According to the adjusted Thanh Hoa Provincial Planning (2026), Giang Quang Thinh IZ covers an area of 298.56 hectares.

Overview

• Planned Location: Thieu Giang, Thieu Quang, Thieu Thinh, and Thieu Hop areas
• Total IZ Area: 298.56 ha
• Industrial Land Area: 214.25 ha
• Planning Study Area: Approx. 348.88 ha
• Occupancy Rate: Contact for details
• Planning Status: 1/2,000 scale construction zoning plan
• Nature: Multi-industry, high-tech industrial zone
• Key Transportation Advantage: Adjacent to the North–South Expressway interchange
• Status: Established under the adjusted 2026 Provincial Planning

Location & Boundaries

The industrial zone is located within the territories of Thieu Giang, Thieu Quang, Thieu Thinh, and Thieu Hop based on the administrative boundaries at the time of planning. The planning boundaries are defined as follows:

• West: North–South Expressway
• North: Hoang Xuan – Thieu Long Road and planned East–West Road 7
• South: Planned North Chu River Road
• East: Planned North–South Road 8

A major advantage of the project is its direct proximity to the North–South Expressway interchange, facilitating seamless connectivity to Thanh Hoa City, the northern and southern districts of the province, and the Nghi Son Economic Zone. Investment promotion documents indicate distances of approximately 24 km to Thanh Hoa City center, 84 km to Nghi Son Deep-Water Port, and 38 km to Tho Xuan Airport.

Planning Scale

It is important to distinguish between two key figures:

• 348.88 ha is the total planning study area, comprising:
• 298.56 ha: Planned area for the industrial zone itself.
• 50.32 ha: Area outside the IZ, including existing land and protection corridors for technical infrastructure.
• Out of the 298.56 ha of industrial land, approximately 214.25 ha is allocated for factory and enterprise construction. The master plan also designates ample land for green spaces, internal transportation, and technical infrastructure systems.

Target Industries

Giang Quang Thinh IZ is oriented toward multi-industry development, prioritizing sectors with high technological content and added value:

• High-tech industries
• Electronics manufacturing
• Processing and manufacturing
• Mechanical engineering
• Automotive industry
• Pharmaceuticals
• Food processing
• Supporting industries
• Modern, eco-friendly manufacturing sectors

(Thieu Hoa District Planning identifies the IZ as a multi-sector industrial zone prioritizing high tech, processing and manufacturing, mechanical engineering, automotive, pharmaceuticals, and food processing.)

Investment Advantages

1. Expressway Connectivity: Its position adjacent to the North–South Expressway is the most prominent advantage. The Giang Quang urban plan also identifies the Thieu Giang interchange as a major economic driver for regional urbanization.
2. Abundant Industrial Land Fund: With nearly 300 hectares overall and over 214 hectares designated for factory construction, the IZ can accommodate manufacturing projects of various scales.
3. High-Tech Orientation: Moving beyond traditional manufacturing, the zone is designed to attract high-tech, advanced processing/manufacturing, and supporting industry projects.
4. Industrial Ecosystem Development: As primary manufacturing anchors enter the zone, extensive opportunities will open up for satellite and support enterprises, including:

• Precision mechanics and processing
• Components and mold manufacturing
• Packaging & technical plastics
• Electrical & electronics
• Logistics, warehousing, and freight transport
• Equipment maintenance & environmental treatment
• Catering and labor supply services

Infrastructure Investment Opportunities

Notably, Thanh Hoa’s 2026 investment promotion list features Giang Quang Thinh Industrial Zone – Phase 2 (located in Thieu Quang commune) with an estimated scale of 173.98 ha and a total planned investment of VND 2,000 billion. It aims to attract high-tech, manufacturing, mechanical, automotive, pharmaceutical, and food processing sectors, with project execution targeted for 2027–2028.
