The Hoa Phu, Binh Minh and Co Chien industrial parks attracted 38 projects worth over 288 million USD.
The growth was a result of a series of moves by local enterprises to cut costs as well as improve quality.
The provincial Department of Industry and Trade has continued programmes to support companies in vocational training, trade promotion, technology transfer and updates on market information.
