The supply of ready-built factories in the northern, central and southern key provinces reached 6,203,192 m2, with a filling rate of about 79%. The supply is mainly developed by domestic investors, and some foreign investors from the United States, Singapore, Japan, typical projects completed in the past year include Kizuna high-rise workshop in Long An with more than 50,000m2 or Frasers Phu Tan in Binh Duong with about 40,000m2 of new supply into the market.
