Vinhomes (ticker: VHM), Vietnam’s leading listed real estate developer, is leveraging its extensive land bank—exceeding 295 million square meters as of December 31, 2025—to develop a pipeline of integrated urban developments that combine residential, commercial, public infrastructure and environmental stewardship within unified masterplans, according to a press release.
The company’s latest landmark project, Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long, is a 6,200-hectare waterfront megacity overlooking UNESCO-listed Ha Long Bay. The development positions itself as a potential “New Hanoi” on Vietnam’s northeastern coast, offering an integrated ecosystem where people can live, work, invest and enjoy resort-style living. Connectivity to the capital is expected to be reduced to an estimated 23 minutes via future high-speed rail.
Vinhomes’ urban development strategy rests on two core pillars: leveraging its strategic land bank advantage as a foundation for long-term urban planning, and executing this vision through globally benchmarked developments that integrate sustainability, smart infrastructure, and human-centred design. The land portfolio, the largest among Vietnamese developers, enables thinking beyond individual projects to masterplan complete urban ecosystems capable of supporting millions of residents and generating sustainable economic activity over decades.
Unlike conventional land accumulation strategies, Vinhomes has focused on securing strategic sites located along emerging transportation corridors, high-growth metropolitan areas, industrial clusters and tourism destinations. This approach integrates transportation connectivity, environmental resilience, commercial opportunities and premium lifestyle infrastructure within a single framework.
Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long illustrates this capability. Positioned along the Hanoi–Hai Phong–Quang Ninh economic corridor and adjacent to the future high-speed railway connecting Hanoi and Quang Ninh, the development is expected to fundamentally redefine regional mobility. Its natural setting further strengthens its competitive advantage: more than 2,500 hectares are dedicated to forests, waterways and ecological landscapes, including 680 hectares of naturally filtered seawater, approximately 200 kilometers of white-sand coastline, and over 660 hectares of Globe Ha Long Forest Park.
The company’s capacity to transform strategic land resources into globally competitive urban destinations is demonstrated across its development pipeline. In the North, Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long is designed to become the world’s first urban development pursuing ISO 37125, an emerging international framework for sustainable cities. The project incorporates a diverse residential portfolio and integrated destinations, including internationally managed five-star hotels, integrated casino resorts, a 950-hectare golf destination comprising 12 courses, an 800-hectare mangrove fishing park, Wonder Marina, and a future Central Business District featuring 30- to 45-storey office towers.
In the South, Vinhomes Green Paradise in Can Gio demonstrates the company’s ESG++-driven model for sustainable coastal urbanism. The project became the first official participant recognized by New7Wonders in the global campaign to identify the “7 Wonders of Future Cities.” Vinhomes has introduced an expanded ESG++ framework incorporating five interconnected pillars: Environment, Social Responsibility, Governance, Regeneration and Climate Adaptation.
Construction adopts advanced technologies such as K-DPM, which converts soft marine sediment into regenerative construction materials, reducing indirect emissions and limiting natural sand extraction. Future operations target 100% clean electricity generated through offshore wind, solar power and battery storage, while supporting 100% net-zero-emission mobility through electric vehicles and future high-speed rail connectivity. Vinhomes Green Paradise is also targeting internationally recognized certifications including BREEAM and ISO 37122. Dedicated environmental funds support long-term mangrove reforestation and biodiversity conservation around the UNESCO-recognized Can Gio Biosphere Reserve.
