This is Hana Micron Vina's second factory in Bac Giang. Previously, the company's first factory was completed and put into operation in 2022. Hana Micron decided to increase investment capital and build a second factory to meet market demand.

With a total investment capital of nearly 600 million USD, the Hana Micron factory is currently one of the projects with the largest investment capital per hectare in Bac Giang, with about 90 million USD per hectare, 8 times higher than the average investment rate of other foreign investment projects in this province.

Speaking at the event, Chairman of Hana Micron Group Choi Chang Ho said that the company plans to increase its investment capital to more than 1 billion USD by 2025. At that time, the factory's revenue was estimated to reach 800 million USD, creating jobs for more than 4,000 workers.

Hana Micron Vina in Vietnam will be the number one production facility in the global business of Hana Micron Group. In particular, human resources recruited in Vietnam will account for 70% of the total human resources.

According to the plan, Hana Micron's revenue in Bac Giang will reach about 300 million USD this year, 2023.

According to Mr Choi Chang Ho, Hana Micron Vina always wants to develop a new semiconductor industry ecosystem in Vietnam, contributing to the diversity of innovative technologies and techniques that Vietnam follows.

At the inauguration ceremony, Chairman of Bac Giang Provincial People's Committee Le Anh Duong highly appreciated Hana Micron's project, saying Hana Micron Vina factory is the first semiconductor manufacturing factory in the North.

According to Mr. Duong, the effective implementation of the project will be the foundation for the development orientation of the semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem in Bac Giang province in particular and Northern Vietnam in general.

This is also an opportunity for Bac Giang province to attract more high-tech projects through the Government's policies and investment attraction strategies and the province's development orientation in the coming time.
