Deal signed for sustainable development at Prodezi Eco-Industrial Park

Covering an area of up to 400 hectares in Long An province, Prodezi Eco-IP is boasts investment of over $180 million.

As the first and largest eco-IP in the Mekong Delta region, the complex is committed to leading in sustainable practices and development through four pillars: use of renewable energy, water reuse and recycling, development of green buildings and warehouses, and facilitating circular economics.

To achieve its goals, the eco-IP leaders have chosen to collaborate with Singapore-headquartered Chitose Bio Evolution, with core technological and business functions belonging to Chitose Group from Japan.

This collaboration aims to provide wastewater treatment solutions, the production of functional organic compost, and the cultivation of plants using soilless organic hydroponics systems at the industrial park.

The initiative not only demonstrates the company’s commitment to sustainable industrial development in Vietnam but also contributes to building an ecosystem where businesses can grow sustainably in harmony with nature and the surrounding community.

At the signing ceremony, representatives from all three parties recognised the cooperative relationship and committed to supporting green and sustainable development in the future.

A representative of the eco-IP stated, “With the advanced technologies provided by Chitose Group and TA Vital, we are committed to ensuring that the park operates efficiently and contributes to sustainable development in Vietnam, and in the Mekong Delta region in particular, according to our objectives.”

Chitose Group is dedicated to developing sustainable solutions that address a wide range of social and environmental issues. The group’s efforts have been endorsed by the Japanese government, particularly through the awarding of multiple grants, including $400 million from the Green Innovation Fund by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organisation.

TA Vital is a consumer health company focused on holistic wellbeing and sustainable solutions. With extensive experience in project development, commercial strategy, and business development, TA Vital also offers guidance on regulatory compliance and authority initiatives.
