Northern Vietnam province Bac Ninh pledges optimal support for Samsung Vietnam expansion

Bac Ninh is committed to facilitating the operation of Samsung Vietnam in the locality, said Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Vuong Quoc Tuan.

At a working session with the group on Monday, Tuan noted that following the recent merger of Bac Giang province into Bac Ninh, Bac Ninh’s economic scale has significantly expanded, creating a broad and dynamic ecosystem that serves Samsung Vietnam.

He cited preliminary statistics showing that about 70% of Samsung Vietnam’s suppliers are located in Bac Ninh, which supports the group’s production and business.

The provincial leader expressed hope that Samsung will continue to enhance the effectiveness of the tripartite cooperation program between Samsung Vietnam, the Vietnamese Ministry of Industry and Trade, and the Bac Ninh People’s Committee.

He also urged the group to accelerate technology transfer, support domestic enterprises in joining the global supply chain, and invest in high-quality human resources training through partnerships among Bac Ninh, training institutions, and Samsung.

Tuan also called on Samsung to actively build ties with local business associations, consider constructing a landmark building bearing the Samsung brand in Bac Ninh, and continue improving employee welfare while paying greater attention to supporting local learning movements and social welfare programs.

For his part, CEO of Samsung Vietnam Na Ki Hong affirmed that Samsung has always received strong support from Bac Ninh authorities throughout its production journey.

While acknowledging that 2025 will still pose numerous challenges, he expressed confidence that, with timely backing from the provincial leadership, the group will overcome difficulties and fulfill its goals for the year.

Since establishing its first mobile phone factory in Yen Phong I Industrial Park in 2008, Samsung has expanded its footprint in Bac Ninh with three major projects: Samsung Display, Samsung Electronics, and Samsung SDI.
