The country attracts increasing investment inflows, reported the Ministry of Planning and Investment. With registered foreign direct investment amounting to US$15.2 billion in the first half of 2024 alone, 13% higher than the same period in 2023. This figure is expected to reach US$40 billion by end-2024.

 

Industries receiving significant investments for semiconductor and electronics, construction, automotive, energy and consumer products, thereby creating demand for plastics.

 

In plastics and rubber industries, extrusion technology is the dominant method for producing plastics products to be used in the construction industry, while the fast-moving consumer goods industry will drive demand for injection molding and blow molding technologies.

 

Among the industries, the packaging, automotive and electronics sectors account for a large share of Vietnam’s plastics market, with investments made to these sectors.

 

Investments in packaging sector

 

As the largest share of Vietnam’s plastics market, the packaging sector has seen substantial growth over the years due to the demand for lightweight, convenient and safe packaging products continues to rise in the food and beverage, medical and healthcare and personal care products.

 

Thantawan Industry Public Company Limited, a leading producer of plastic packaging in Thailand, signed a deal for a 30-year factory lease, marking its first in Vietnam. The packaging production facility, designed to achieve an annual production capacity of 9,000 tons, will be operated by the company’s subsidiary, Thantawan Industry (Vietnam) Co., Ltd.

Local and foreign investments in blooming automotive sector

 

Vietnam’s automotive sector is projected to grow by 14-16% annually by 2030. As the Ministry of Industry and Trade sets a target to raise vehicle sales to around 1 million units by 2030 in its proposed “Development Strategy for Vietnam’s Automotive Industry to 2030, with a Vision to 2045,” the industry is transitioning from fuel-powered vehicles to more fuel-efficient options such as electric vehicles, hybrids, and solar vehicles.

 

Local automotive brand VinFast has delivered over 50,000 electric vehicles (EVs) to the domestic market in 2024, standing as the best-selling brand in Vietnam, and competing head-on with foreign competitors. The company has also been exporting to other countries.
