How Industrial Parks Benefit from Long Thanh International Airport

Long Thanh International Airport is not only a national aviation megaproject but also a strategic catalyst for industrial parks (IPs) and ready-built factories in Southern Vietnam. With its role as a future international air cargo hub, the airport is redefining investment flows around Ho Chi Minh City.

1. Long Thanh Airport – A New Logistics Engine for Industrial Growth

Planned with a capacity of 100 million passengers and 5 million tons of cargo per year, Long Thanh Airport is positioned to become a major aviation and logistics hub in Southeast Asia.

Its development creates three major impacts on industrial parks and factories:

• Shorter export–import transportation time

• Lower logistics costs for manufacturers

• Attraction of high-value, time-sensitive industries

FDI manufacturers, export-oriented enterprises, and logistics companies are the main beneficiaries.

2. Industrial Parks Surrounding Long Thanh Airport – New Investment Hotspots

Long Thanh – Nhon Trach Industrial Zone (Dong Nai)

This area is considered the core industrial belt of Long Thanh Airport:

• Only 5–15 km from the airport

• Direct access to Long Thanh – Dau Giay Expressway, Ring Roads 3 & 4

• Large land bank with modern infrastructure

Suitable for:

• Supporting industries

• Precision engineering

• Electronics

• Air cargo logistics

Phu My – Cai Mep Industrial Zone (Ba Ria – Vung Tau)

Combining deep-sea ports and an international airport, this region offers a rare logistics advantage:

• 40–60 km from Long Thanh Airport

• Ideal for containerized and high-value exports

• Suitable for multimodal (air–sea) logistics operations

3. How Ready-Built Factories Benefit from Long Thanh Airport

Rising Demand for Ready-Built Factories & Warehouses

Long Thanh Airport drives strong demand for:

• Air cargo logistics warehouses

• Assembly and finishing factories

• Cold storage and bonded warehouses

Many companies prefer ready-built factories within industrial parks to:

• Accelerate market entry

• Reduce upfront capital expenditure

• Maintain flexibility for future expansion

Factories Near Airport-Connected Transport Corridors

Preferred factory locations typically feature:
