Its supply of factories and warehouses was also 10.25 percent higher than the country’s. It was followed by Hai Phong with 7.61 percent, Hai Duong 4.78 percent and Thai Nguyen 4.61 percent.
The capital city of Hanoi witnessed a slight increase of 1 percent, reaching 91 percent in occupancy rate with 13 projects, ranking second in the region, ahead of Hai Duong with 86 percent, Vinh Phuc and Hung Yen each 88 percent.
