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 integrated urban communities that blend residential, commercial, public infrastructure, and environmental stewardship within unified masterplans. This strategy positions the company to address Vietnam's rapid urbanization while creating long-term value.
The company's latest landmark project, Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long, a 6,200-hectare waterfront megacity overlooking UNESCO-listed Ha Long Bay, exemplifies this vision. Covering more than 6,200 hectares, the development aims to become a "New Hanoi" on Vietnam's northeastern coast, offering an integrated ecosystem for living, working, and investing. Connectivity to the capital is expected to be reduced to an estimated 23 minutes via future high-speed rail, underscoring the project's strategic location along the Hanoi–Hai Phong–Quang Ninh economic corridor.
Vinhomes' urban development strategy rests on two pillars: leveraging its strategic land bank for long-term planning and executing globally benchmarked developments that integrate sustainability, smart infrastructure, and human-centered design. Unlike conventional developers, Vinhomes secures sites along emerging transportation corridors, high-growth metropolitan areas, industrial clusters, and tourism destinations. This approach allows the company to incorporate transportation connectivity, environmental resilience, commercial opportunities, and premium lifestyle infrastructure into a single framework.
Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long illustrates this capability. The project features more than 2,500 hectares 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. It is designed to become the world's first urban development pursuing ISO 37125, an emerging international framework for sustainable cities.
The development includes a diverse residential portfolio—villas, townhouses, shophouses, and luxury apartments—across six major districts, along with integrated destinations such as internationally managed five-star hotels, integrated casino resorts, a 950-hectare golf destination with 12 courses, an 800-hectare mangrove fishing park, Wonder Marina, and a future Central Business District with 30- to 45-storey office towers. Education and healthcare are prioritized through Vinschool, international schools, and Vinmec Cleveland Clinic, alongside Vin New Horizon, Vietnam's largest retirement community.
In the South, Vinhomes Green Paradise in Can Gio demonstrates an 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 with five pillars: Environment, Social Responsibility, Governance, Regeneration, and Climate Adaptation. Construction uses advanced technologies like K-DPM, which converts soft marine sediment into regenerative materials, reducing indirect emissions and limiting natural sand extraction.
Future operations target 100% clean electricity from offshore wind, solar power, and battery storage, supporting 100% net-zero-emission mobility through electric vehicles and high-speed rail. Vinhomes Green Paradise is targeting 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.
These projects highlight Vinhomes' ability to transform strategic land resources into globally competitive urban destinations, setting new benchmarks for sustainable development in Vietnam and beyond.
