Around 1,355 businesses, or 96 per cent of tenants in industrial parks and export processing zones have resumed operations since the lockdown was lifted on October 1, according to the HCM City Export Processing Zone and Industrial Park Authority.
It was critical for export processing zones (EPZs) and industrial zones (IZs) in HCM City to renovate strategies towards high-technology and green development to contribute to enhancing the southern city’s economic growth quality.
