With an average annual growth rate of over 10%, Vietnam’s aviation market and industry are increasingly attracting investment from Japanese supporting industry enterprises, seeking to connect with the global supply chain. Recently, at the Hanoi Southern Supporting Industrial Park (Hanssip), a program was held to promote investment, cooperation, and business networking at the Vietnam – Japan Techno Park Complex.
The event was attended by Former State President Truong Tan Sang, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung, leaders of central and local authorities, the Minister-Counselor of the Embassy of Japan in Vietnam, and many enterprises engaged in the aerospace supporting industry in Vietnam.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Ishikawa Isamu, Deputy Ambassador of Japan to Vietnam, praised the scale and development standards of the Hanssip industrial park. He noted that with an area of 640 hectares, Hanssip was designed by Nikken Sekkei, following Japanese industrial park standards.
At Hanssip, Onaga Co., Ltd. (Japan), a global aircraft components manufacturer, has invested in production facilities. Its components are currently exported worldwide for use in the aerospace industry. The cooperation between Onaga and Vietnamese enterprises in Hanssip is seen as a model partnership between Vietnam and Japan, reflecting Japan’s “Sanpo Yoshi” philosophy — benefiting three parties: seller, buyer, and society.
According to Mr. Nguyen Hoang, Chairman of the Hanoi Supporting Industry Business Association and Chairman of N&G Group, the Vietnamese business community has made great efforts to overcome difficulties and integrate into both domestic and global production chains, aiming for localization, self-reliance, and contributing to national development and economic security.
Mr. Hoang shared that Phase 1 of the Vietnam – Japan Techno Park Complex has already been completed, with a series of factories from both Japanese and Vietnamese enterprises. The first factory, invested and operated by Onaga Japan, focuses on producing components for aerospace, high-speed rail, semiconductor manufacturing, robotics, construction and agricultural machinery, and dual-use products. Production has begun on a trial basis, following aerospace industry standards, with the support of Boeing Group (USA).
He emphasized that fostering cooperation with developed nations, including Japan, helps Vietnamese enterprises access global technologies, processes, and production certifications, while also providing high-tech training and connecting domestic and international markets — thereby creating mutual benefits and sustainable development.
N&G Group, along with its ecosystem of enterprises, has invested in synchronized industrial infrastructure that meets global production chain standards. Hanssip is comprehensively planned with medical, educational, cultural, and residential facilities for workers, engineers, and experts, creating a favorable foundation for international production cooperation, especially with Japan.
At the event, Mr. Onaga Masaru, Chairman of Onaga Co., Ltd. (Japan), shared that his company manufactures small aircraft components, such as bushings, used in doors, landing gears, flaps, fuel tanks, and other critical parts. Although small in size, these components must meet strict safety and precision standards for the global aerospace market. The company has invested in modern, environmentally friendly equipment to ensure worker safety. After machining, components undergo surface treatment and plating to guarantee durability and quality in accordance with aerospace standards.
“Vietnam’s aviation market is growing at over 10% per year, opening vast opportunities for aircraft component manufacturing,” Mr. Onaga emphasized.
“Beyond our existing partners, we will continue to expand cooperation with Vietnamese enterprises, helping them access technology, receive technical training, and participate in the international production chain,” he added.
Japanese companies reaffirmed their goal of producing components in Vietnam for export to international markets, while also sharing technologies, manufacturing expertise, and workforce training to promote the sustainable development of Vietnam’s supporting industry supply chain.
Speaking on the sidelines of the event, Mr. Tran Phuong Lam, Deputy General Director of N&G Group Vietnam, stated that industrial parks managed by the Group in Hanoi have reached a 100% occupancy rate. The presence of major investors has created strong demand from satellite enterprises and secondary investors, especially in component manufacturing and supporting industries.
N&G Group is currently preparing land resources and ready-built factories for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), allowing investors to begin production immediately by simply bringing their equipment and workforce. Priority industries include electronics, precision engineering, and high-tech manufacturing, serving both domestic and international production chains.
The second phase of the industrial park, approved by the Prime Minister, is now under development and will provide ready-built factories ranging from 3,000–5,000 m² and land plots from 2–5 hectares for medium-sized enterprises, with 2% of the total land area reserved for SMEs and high-tech enterprises.
To support localization and financing, the Group is working with financial institutions and the Vietnam Development Bank (VDB) to offer loans for SMEs to purchase equipment and expand production. Additionally, the Group provides technology transfer, product processing support, and technical workforce training.
