DNO - The southeastern side of Da Nang has become an attractive destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) enterprises to research and learn about investment opportunities thanks to the city's friendly investment climate and synchronous development of infrastructure.

Friendly investment climate
Recently, German cleaning technology company Kärcher inaugurated Phase II of its Kärcher Vietnam Technology manufacturing plant in Da Nang with an investment capital of approximately VND484 billion (about US$18.5 million). The new facility is located in the Tam Hiep Port Logistics and Industrial Park in Nui Thanh Commune, within the Chu Lai Open Economic Zone.
This demonstrates the business' confidence in the investment environment as well as its determination to commit to a long-term presence in the southeastern part of the city.
Kärcher Vietnam Technology, now covering an area of 6.2 hectares with a total registered captital of nearly VND 1,000 billion and around 300 workers, manufactures high-pressure washers, handheld cleaning equipment and other cleaning solutions for domestic and international markets.
According to Executive Vice President of Kärcher, Wolfgang Thomar, the Phase 2 investment is a testament to Kärcher Group's vision for growth, innovation, and long-term commitment to the dynamic and promising city of Da Nang. It is a strategic region for development, offering a favorable investment climate, high-quality human resources, and particularly the strong support and active cooperation from the local government.
All this has created a solid foundation for Kärcher to expand production and move towards a strategic partnership and sustainable development in the future.

Until now, the park has attracted 41 secondary investment projects, including 38 domestic ones and 3 FDI ones, with a total registered capital of approximately VND 10,884 billion.
