Ninh Binh’s Export Incredible Performance Exceeds 2025 Target

Ninh Binh has achieved a remarkable export performance in 2025, with its total export value reaching $25.391 billion USD in the first 11 months, marking a 61.3% increase year-on-year and exceeding the annual export target by approximately 11.6%. This result underscores the province’s increasingly important role in Vietnam’s export landscape and contributes to broader economic growth in the Red River Delta region.

Export Growth: Key Sectors Leading the Surge

A combination of competitive industries contributed to this extraordinary export outcome:

• Electronics and high-tech products, supported by FDI and local manufacturing integrations, emerged as major export drivers.
• Textiles and garments, traditionally strong export segments for Vietnam, saw renewed demand and expanded orders.
• Footwear products, benefiting from year-round global demand, maintained robust growth.
• Electrical equipment for automotive and electronics applications also recorded meaningful increases in overseas shipments.

Collectively, these industries helped Ninh Binh outperform its 2025 expectations well before year-end and underscored the province’s diversified export base and resilience amid global economic uncertainties.

Industrial Foundations and Cluster Growth

Industrial zones and economic clusters within Ninh Binh played a central role in the export surge, contributing over 63% of the province’s total export value. This aligns with broader regional manufacturing expansion where robust industrial ecosystems boost productivity, output, and global competitiveness.

Local enterprises — from contract manufacturers to high-tech firms such as QMH Computer, MCNEC Vina, Gemtek Vietnam, ACE ANTENNA, Neweb Vietnam, Wistron Infocomm Vietnam, and SET Vietnam — all registered double-digit export growth, demonstrating Ninh Binh’s ability to harness both foreign investment and domestic industrial capabilities.

Sectoral Dynamics: Resilience and Challenges

Sectoral Dynamics: Resilience and Challenges

While many export sectors surged, not all segments experienced parallel momentum. For example, clinker and cement exporters encountered headwinds due to weaker domestic demand, tighter raw material availability, and increased export duties that impacted competitiveness. Despite these challenges, the overall export trajectory remained strong — reflecting Ninh Binh’s diversification and adaptive supply-chain strategies.

Strategic Support and Policy Facilitation

In response to this rapid export expansion, provincial authorities intensified efforts to sustain the export momentum into 2026 and beyond. Key measures include:

• Enhancing export support services and policy guidance to leverage free trade agreements (FTAs).
• Strengthening provincial planning and administrative procedures to improve export logistics and reduce regulatory delays.
• Encouraging firms to enter new markets such as the United States, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, diversifying destinations beyond traditional markets.

These initiatives are aimed at ensuring that the province not only sustains its current export growth but also captures future export opportunities within an increasingly competitive global trade environment.

Implications for Regional and National Export Landscape

Ninh Binh’s export achievement also contributes to a broader trend of export dynamism in the Red River Delta, where provinces such as Bac Ninh, Hai Phong, and Hanoi have consistently shown robust trade performance this year. Nationally, Vietnam’s export sector continues to register strong growth, with export turnover at the national level rising by double-digit rates and contributing to an overall trade surplus and robust export performance in recent years.

This substantial export performance from regional economies like Ninh Binh underlines how decentralized manufacturing and diversified export portfolios are supporting Vietnam’s broader economic growth targets for 2025 and beyond.

Looking Ahead: 2026 and Beyond

Building on its 2025 momentum, Ninh Binh is positioning itself for continued export growth in 2026 by:

• Encouraging technology upgrading and value-added manufacturing.
• Strengthening linkages with global supply chains.
• Expanding logistics capacity to support faster movement of goods.

With proactive policies and strong industrial foundations, the province is well-placed to maintain export growth in the years ahead, reinforcing not only its own economic resilience but also its contribution to Vietnam’s national trade objectives.
