Prodezi, Huong Viet Holding Launch US$195 Mln Eco-Industrial Park In Vietnam

KUALA LUMPUR, March 14 (Bernama) -- Prodezi Long An JSC (Prodezi) and Huong Viet Investment Consulting JSC (Huong Viet Holding) have officially begun construction on Long An's first eco-industrial park in Vietnam.

The Prodezi Eco-Industrial Park (Prodezi EIP), with a total investment of US$195 million, is set to become one of the largest eco-industrial developments in the Mekong Delta region. (US$1 = RM4.43)

According to a statement, the groundbreaking ceremony of the project marks a milestone for Prodezi and Huong Viet Holding to develop a well-planned eco-industrial park model in line with global sustainability trends.

Spanning 400 hectares (ha), it will showcase sustainable practices such as renewable energy use, wastewater treatment, recycling, green-certified buildings, and biodiversity protection.

Under the plan, the eco-industrial park will deploy clean energy sources, including solar power and energy-saving systems, to minimise carbon emissions, striving toward carbon neutrality in production.

Meanwhile, an advanced wastewater treatment system is installed to recirculate water in manufacturing, reducing resource extraction and environmental pollution. Additionally, the project boasts green-certified buildings that prioritise energy efficiency, eco-friendly materials, and high operational performance.

The first phase subdivision is slated to be completed and handed over to investors by the third quarter of this year. Once operational, Prodezi EIP is envisioned as the leading manufacturing hub in the region for industries such as semiconductors, electronics, artificial intelligence, textiles and footwear, food and beverages, and logistics.

Located near the 100-ha LA Home eco-urban area, the park will be part of a larger industrial-urban complex offering a high-quality working environment.

The project's strategic location also ensures excellent connectivity to Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and nearby provinces through key transport routes such as the HCMC – Trung Luong Expressway, and the Ben Luc – Long Thanh Expressway, facilitating efficient access to airports and seaports and improving supply chain logistics.

Prodezi and Huong Viet Holding have also signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with prominent Japanese partners, including Chitose and Toho Gas, to provide wastewater treatment and natural gas solutions for Prodezi EIP.
