Located in the southern key economic zone, with the Cai Mep-Thi Vai deep-water port system, Ba Ria-Vung Tau province has all the advantages to develop into a regional logistics center. Recognizing that importance, Ba Ria-Vung Tau province has concentrated resources, set aside a land fund, and invited reputable, experienced and potential investors to invest in this crucial field.

On December 17, the project of Polypropylene (PP) factory and Hyosung LPG underground storage facility in Cai Mep - Thi Vai area, Phu My town, Ba Ria - Vung Tau province was inaugurated. This is one of the typical projects of the province to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the province's establishment.

Although Vietnam, especially Ho Chi Minh City and the Southern region, has been hit by the epidemic and has had to apply prolonged social distancing. However, despite the pandemic, the performance indicators collected in the first 9 months of 2021 are more positive than the same period last year, and many trends in the industrial real estate segment will have the opportunity to break through in 2022.

More than 4.4 km long, with 4 lanes, Phuoc Hoa - Cai Mep road has been completed and opened to traffic, finally. The project has Mo Nhat bridge spanning the river of the same name with a length of 696 m, a bridge cross section of 20 m, including four lanes.

According to the research by the World Bank and IHS Markit, 3 Vietnamese seaports, Cai Lan International Container Terminal in the northern province of Quang Ninh ranked at 46th while Hai Phong Port and Cai Mep International Terminal in the southern province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau ranked at 47th and 49th, respectively.
The volume of goods transported through southern ports has been rising by an average of 20 % a year in recent years, according to a report by Vietcombank Securities Company. The most important reason is the development of deep-water facilities at Ba Ria - Vung Tau Province. 

The continuous waves of COVID-19 have challenged the Vietnam industrial market in Q3 2021, and heavily impacted the Southern region. In July, Directive 16 was applied in HCMC, Binh Duong, and Dong Nai that nearly frozen the inter-province transportation of labour force and goods. From what was experienced in Bac Ninh, the government and manufacturers adjusted their plan frequently to maintain the production and safety of the labour force during this challenging period.
