According to the Department of Industry and Trade, the world has seen complicated developments in the first months this year; thus, the industrial sector of Bac Giang province faces big challenges especially in production for export including garment and textile and supply chain for Samsung. However, thanks to effective solutions, the province’s industrial production has gained positive results.
The industrial production value in Q1 reached over 115 trillion VND (4.9 billion USD) (at current price), 11 percent increase year on year.

It is predicted that enterprises in the province will still face difficulties in upcoming months. In order to reach the target 507 trillion VND (21 billion USD) of industrial production value, the provincial People’s Committee requested related departments and agencies to grasp production and business situation of the enterprises; thereby taking measures to solve the problems and handle the recommendations on capital, consumption market, labour and material costs to help enterprises gradually stabilize their production and foster recovery of the supply chain.
In implementing the above direction, the departments and agencies will continue to boost administrative procedure reform, support enterprises access to land, capital and power supply, reduce costs and time to deal with administrative procedures and readily dialogue with enterprises to remove obstacles.
