Demand for industrial property is on the rise following the growth of foreign direct investment (FDI) which hit US$34.5 billion in 2018.
Accordingly, more firms seek for establishments that range from 500 sq.m to 50,000 sq.m including build-to-suit to optimize their facilities and save cost, Savills Vietnam said.
Meanwhile, the Vietnam National Real Estate Association (VNREA) attributed the growth of industrial property to increasing money inflows, including remittance. Investors prefer real estate to other investment channels namely securities, gold, foreign currencies, and deposits, it said.
Industrial parks in Vietnam have covered an area of more than 80,000 hectares of land with the operations of hundreds thousands of companies, mostly FIEs.
