Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Absolutely — and this is our strength. See The Space provides comprehensive consulting services for both provinces, offering a shortlist that directly compares options in Bac Ninh and Bac Giang based on the same criteria: price, location, infrastructure, and legal aspects. You don't need to find multiple different brokerage firms for each location.

Warehouse space in Bac Giang is typically 15–30% cheaper than in Bac Ninh with the same infrastructure standards. Typical warehouse space in Bac Giang ranges from $1.5–3 USD/m²/month, while in Bac Ninh it ranges from $2–4 USD/m²/month.

The price difference depends on the specific location, construction quality, and included equipment.

See The Space provides a comparison of actual prices updated at the time of consultation – not theoretical figures.

The procedures in both provinces are basically similar according to the general legal framework of Vietnam. In industrial parks, the management boards provide excellent one-stop support for procedures in both provinces. The difference is that Bac Giang currently has a more proactive and faster policy in processing investment applications due to its active efforts to attract FDI. See The Space accompanies you through the entire procedural process for both localities.

Yes, and the number is growing rapidly. Bac Giang has been attracting significant FDI from Japan (Honda, Toto, automotive suppliers), South Korea (Samsung SDI, electronics suppliers), and Taiwan. The presence of this Asian business community creates an increasingly comprehensive ecosystem of suppliers and support services. See The Space can connect with this community to support new businesses entering the market.

Bac Giang is often a more suitable choice for the garment and footwear industry due to: an abundant and lower-cost labor force, ample land for large factory spaces, more competitive rental rates, and convenient logistics infrastructure connecting to Hai Phong port. The Van Trung and Song Khe – Noi Hoang industrial parks are particularly suitable for this segment. However, individual cases still require personalized consultation.

From Traditional Craft Villages to a Global Technology Hub
In just 15 years, Bac Ninh has dramatically transformed from a purely agricultural province into Vietnam's largest electronics manufacturing hub. Samsung accounts for over 30% of the country's total export revenue here — and hundreds of satellite suppliers are constantly seeking production space near this supply chain.
Dense Industrial Ecosystem — Cluster Advantages
Bac Ninh boasts over 15 large and small industrial parks, from VSIP, Tien Son, Que Vo to Yen Phong — each with its own characteristics and industry segment. Businesses locating factories within the same cluster benefit from readily available human resources, nearby supply chains, and shared, synchronously invested infrastructure.
Prime Location — 30 Minutes from Hanoi City Center
Located just 30km from Hanoi via National Highway 1A and the Hanoi-Bac Giang Expressway, Bac Ninh is an ideal choice for businesses wanting to be close to the largest consumer market in the North while still enjoying lower land and labor costs compared to downtown Hanoi (30-50%).
The Opportunity Remains — But the Right Guide Is Needed
The Bac Ninh industrial real estate market is increasingly complex with multiple segments, numerous investors, and inconsistent information. See The Space helps businesses navigate this market with local expertise and a commitment to transparency — Right Space. Right Budget.

One Ecosystem — Synergistic Strength
Bac Ninh and Bac Giang are not just neighboring provinces — they form an interconnected industrial corridor where the supply chains for electronics, textiles, machinery, and logistics are closely intertwined. Businesses locating factories in this region benefit from the entire ecosystem: suppliers, labor, transportation infrastructure, and consumer markets within a 60km radius.

Bac Ninh — The Electronics & High-Tech Hub
With Samsung, Foxconn, Amkor, and hundreds of satellite suppliers, Bac Ninh is the province with the largest share of electronics exports in Vietnam. Yen Phong, VSIP, Tien Son, and Que Vo industrial parks offer diverse options from international standard factories to flexible workshops for SMEs — prices ranging from 2.5 to 7 USD/m²/month depending on the segment.
Bac Giang — A Rising Star, Affordable Prices, Abundant Land
While Bac Ninh has reached a certain level of saturation, Bac Giang is experiencing rapid growth with the Van Trung, Song Khe – Noi Hoang, Dinh Tram, and Yen Lu industrial parks continuously expanding. Lower rental prices (20-35% lower than Bac Ninh), abundant industrial land, and proactive investment attraction policies from the province are reasons why more and more FDI is choosing Bac Giang.

VSIP & Tien Son, Que Vo Industrial Parks (Bac Ninh) — Diverse Options for All Sizes

VSIP offers Singaporean standards with one-stop services and a multinational FDI community.

Rental Prices & Operating Costs — Bac Giang Has a Clear Advantage
Bac Ninh International Industrial Park: 4–7 USD/m²/month. Bac Ninh Domestic Industrial Park: 2.5–4.5 USD/m²/month. Bac Giang Industrial Park: 2–4 USD/m²/month. Besides rental prices, labor costs in Bac Giang are about 10–20% lower than in Bac Ninh, and the larger land area makes it easier for businesses to find larger spaces without having to accept higher prices.
Infrastructure & Transportation Connectivity — Bac Ninh Still Leads, Bac Giang Catching Up
Bac Ninh has a more complete industrial park infrastructure system after 20 years of development. Bac Giang is investing heavily in transportation infrastructure and industrial parks — the Hanoi-Bac Giang expressway provides quick connections to Hanoi, and the Kep-Hai Phong railway line helps transport export goods efficiently through Hai Phong port.
Human Resources — Advantages of Both Provinces
Both Bac Ninh and Bac Giang have young populations and skilled technical workforces thanks to the long-standing presence of large FDI factories. Bac Giang has the added advantage of abundant labor from surrounding agricultural districts, suitable for labor-intensive industries such as garment and assembly.
When to choose Bac Ninh, when to choose Bac Giang?
Choose Bac Ninh if: you need to be near the Samsung/Foxconn supply chain, require high-standard international industrial park infrastructure, or already have partners/clients located in Bac Ninh. Choose Bac Giang if: budget is a priority, you need a large area, are in the garment/leather/food industry, or want to benefit from high investment incentives from a province that is still strongly attracting investment. See The Space provides unbiased advice — based only on your actual needs.

Mistake 1: Only looking at the rental price/m², ignoring the actual total cost
The listed rental price is only part of the story. Industrial park management fees, low-voltage electricity fees, wastewater treatment fees, security fees, and a 2-6 month deposit can push the total cost up by 30-50% compared to the initial rental price. See The Space always prepares a detailed breakdown of actual costs before clients make a decision.

Mistake 2: Not checking legal aspects and construction permits
Many privately owned factories in Bac Ninh and Bac Giang are built without complete permits, affecting their ability to obtain business licenses and fire safety permits. Businesses renting these types of factories often encounter problems when registering their operations or are required to demolish the violating structures. Checking legal aspects is a mandatory step.
Mistake 3: Rushing into contracts out of fear of 'losing the factory'
The scarcity created by brokers leads many businesses to hastily sign contracts without carefully reading the unfavorable terms. In reality, the Bac Ninh – Bac Giang market offers ample options if you look in the right way. See The Space helps you find suitable options so you don't have to make decisions under artificial pressure.
Mistake 4: Not considering future expansion
Businesses often rent based on current needs without considering the possibility of expansion. When they need to scale up, they have to move the factory — the cost of moving machinery and disrupting production is very expensive. See The Space always asks about the next 3-5 years and looks for factories with expansion plans or adjacent space to rent when needed.

Mistake 5: Choosing a factory based on intuition after a single visit

Many businesses are impressed by the factory's appearance—new paint, spacious yard, enthusiastic owner—while overlooking crucial technical factors such as floor load capacity, actual electrical power consumption, drainage system, or roof quality. These issues only become apparent after machinery is installed. See The Space uses a standard technical checklist for each site visit to ensure no important points are missed.

Mistake 6: Not negotiating—Thinking the listed price is the final price

This is a mistake that leaves businesses with room for negotiation. In the Bac Ninh – Bac Giang market, almost every contract has room for negotiation: waiving the first 1-3 months' rent, supporting renovation costs, discounts for long-term commitments, or adjusting deposit terms. Many factory owners are willing to compromise if the tenant is reputable and makes clear commitments. See The Space negotiates on behalf of clients as part of its service—without additional fees.
