Former Hai Duong (now part of Hai Phong city) sits between Hanoi and Hai Phong port, served by National Highways 5, 18, 37 and 38 and the Hanoi – Hai Phong expressway, which makes it a familiar choice for manufacturers. Here is what investors should know about building a factory in Hai Duong, from PQT's industrial construction experience.
1. Inside or outside an industrial park?
| Inside a park | Outside a park | |
|---|---|---|
| Land | Sub-leased serviced land, clear procedures | Must match zoning, longer procedures |
| Infrastructure | Roads, power, water, wastewater ready | Owner connects utilities |
| Best for | FDI and regulated manufacturing | Small and mid-size workshops, warehouses |
Parks such as Dai An, Phuc Dien, Nam Sach, Tan Truong, Lai Vu and Cong Hoa each have preferred industries, so talk to the park management first.
2. Permits
Investment registration where required, land lease or land-use certificate, environmental procedures, fire-safety design approval under QCVN 06:2022/BXD, and a building permit.
3. Design decisions that drive cost
Span and height, crane capacity, floor loading and soft-soil treatment, roof and cladding, fire-safety class, and ancillary offices and canteens.
4. Pre-engineered steel
Most factories use pre-engineered steel frames fabricated off-site and bolted on site: fast, wide-span and easy to extend.
Cost
PQT does not quote a single rate for every factory; soil, span, crane loads, cladding, fire-safety level and external utilities make the difference. A reliable estimate needs a soil survey and a concept design. See PQT industrial projects or request a quote.
