Production activities improve

Although there are still many difficulties in product consumption markets, with many flexible solutions, the operations of many enterprises at the "locomotive" Nghi Son Economic Zone (KKTNS) and industrial parks are still "bright spots" that contribute positively to Thanh Hoa's industry.

Production activities improve Product manufacturing at Northern Vietnam Vegetable Oils Company Limited (KKTNS).

At Nghi Son Cement Company, the first months of this year recorded growth in output in both cement and clinker products. In the first quarter, the company produced and sold 1.3 million tons of cement and 1.05 million tons of clinker to the market. With positive signals in consumption in the first months of the year, the company is setting a revenue target of VND 6,500 billion in 2024, up 13% over the same period, profit increased by VND 300 billion and contribution to the State budget of VND 250 billion, up 10% over the same period.

In the first quarter, Northern Vietnam Vegetable Oils Company Limited brought to the market 10,815 tons of packaged cooking oil and 7,164 bulk products, all of which increased compared to the same period. With good consumption signals, the company also oriented production targets to increase such as revenue reaching 2,693 billion VND, up 55%; profit reaching 118 billion VND, up 5%; State budget payment 453 billion VND, up 55% compared to the same period.

According to the Management Board of the Economic Zone and Industrial Parks, the first months of 2024 also witnessed the stable operations of many large enterprises such as Nghi Son Refinery and Petrochemical Plant, thermal power plants, cement, packaging... The production and business value of enterprises grew well, with revenue reaching 64,083 billion VND, up 16% over the same period. Enterprises paid 6,758 billion VND to the budget, up 43% over the same period and created jobs for nearly 100,000 workers.

In addition to existing projects, the first quarter of this year also recorded the commissioning of a number of new projects, increasing products and expecting to increase production value. Most recently, after more than 20 months of construction, the SAB Industrial Factory, under SAB Vietnam Industrial Co., Ltd., was officially inaugurated and put into operation at Bim Son Industrial Park. This is a project with a total investment of more than 62 million USD, specializing in the production of clothing accessories such as zippers, plastic buttons, metal buttons, etc. Putting the project into operation not only creates jobs for more than 1,000 local workers but also contributes to the development of the garment industry's supporting industry, reducing the garment industry's dependence on imported accessories from abroad.

Mr. Wang Wo, General Director of SAB Industrial Factory, said: “We are very grateful to the Thanh Hoa provincial government for always accompanying and supporting the project to complete on schedule. We are urgently connecting with partners and customers. This year's plan is expected to produce an output of about 56 million USD.”

Currently, the Management Board of the Economic Zones and Industrial Parks of the province is promoting and attracting investment in projects that bring high socio-economic efficiency; creating conditions for existing investors to invest in expanding scale and capacity, especially large projects and key projects of the province. The unit is also actively urging and supporting projects to ensure construction progress, especially supporting the resolution of difficulties and obstacles of projects: Dong Vang Industrial Park infrastructure project; Lam Son - Sao Vang Industrial Park infrastructure; Project No. 1, Duc Giang Chemical Complex; investment projects of VAS Group and Cong Thanh Group Joint Stock Company... to soon create a clean site and put the projects into operation and exploitation. The unit is also strengthening inspection and urging the implementation progress of projects that have been allocated land and leased land; advising on considering the recovery of land that has been delayed for a long time to hand over to capable investors to implement the project; Strengthen support and guidance in completing environmental records and procedures and complying with laws in the environmental field, towards sustainable development.

From 2023 to now, in the NSK and industrial parks, the investment policy has been approved for many new projects such as: DST Nghi Son Steel Rolling Mill Project with a total investment of 5,500 billion VND; VNC Aquaculture Area with a total investment of 100 billion VND; Dai Duong High-Tech Reinforced Concrete Components Factory with a total investment of 1,099 billion VND; Nghi Son Global Factory with a total investment of 860 billion VND; Limestone mining project for cement raw materials with a total investment of 1,142 billion VND; 220kV transformer station of NSK and connecting lines with a total investment of 675 billion VND... When these projects come into operation and exploitation, the "nucleus" of Nghi Son and industrial parks will have a breakthrough development.
