VSIP Can Tho is the first large-scale industrial park of the Mekong Delta, Hieu said, noting that work is underway for land to be handed over to investors serving their launch of their projects next year.
Can Tho wants the VSIP Group to call for investment in agro-fishery processing, logistics and warehouses, he said.
Echoing the view, Teo wished that the local authorities will give priority to the project and pledged the group’s compliance with the law.
On October 17, 2022, the Prime Minister approved the investment in the first phase of VSIP Can Tho, which covers 293.7ha of land in Vinh Trinh commune, Vinh Thanh district. The project is expected to become a major centre for food processing and distribution and infrastructure development in the Mekong Delta, contributing to the city’s restructuring and socio-economic growth./.
