For four consecutive years, Hue City has ranked among the top 10 provinces and cities nationwide in the Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI). This is a remarkable achievement for Thua Thien Hue (now Hue City), especially in the context of increasingly fierce competition among localities to attract investment. The result not only reflects a stable business and investment environment, but also demonstrates a significant shift in governance mindset and the improved quality of the civil servants – a pioneering force in building a service-oriented government.

Many major projects that have completed investment procedures and begun construction in the early months of the year are expected to create new momentum to help Hue thrive.

Along with the recovery and growth in tourist numbers, the luxury travel segment within Vietnam’s tourism industry in general - and Hue’s in particular - is gradually gaining attraction. The “smokeless industry” of the ancient capital is showing many positive signs, suggesting that with proper investment, it could become an attractive destination for wealthy travelers.

On the afternoon of May 15, at the Hue City People’s Committee headquarters, a sponsorship signing ceremony took place between the Organizing Committee of Hue Festival 2025 and the Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV), marking BIDV’s collaboration in key cultural and tourism events during the National Tourism Year in Hue.

On May 9, the Center for Investment Promotion, Trade, and Business Support announced that the city will organize a trade connection conference between businesses of Hue City and distributors in Ho Chi Minh City from May 23 to 25, 2025.

According to the information from the Center for Trade Investment and Promotion, and Business Support, the center is accompanying the launch of the Kinh Do Specialty Cultural and Culinary Experience Complex at the Song Centre Hue.

Hue is becoming a fertile ground for strategic investors to set down roots.

The trade connection program between enterprises, cooperatives, and production and business establishments in Hue City with Central Retail Vietnam Group was organized by the City's Center for Trade Investment Promotion and Enterprise Support on the afternoon of March 31.

Through diplomatic activities, Hue has become a partner of many foreign localities, thereby gradually diversifying its investment promotion efforts.

A trade connection program between Kinh Do Specialty Joint Stock Company and 20 enterprises in the City area was held on March 22. The program aimed to bring the enterprises into the Song Centre space. This event was organized by the Trade Investment Promotion and Enterprise Support Center in collaboration with the Enterprise Association, and Kinh Do Specialty Joint Stock Company.
