The administrative center of Le Chan district will be expanded on the basis of the existing office and additional area of Trang An Company's land.

The fifth project of Aeon Mall Vietnam will be built in Ha Dong district, west of Hanoi. In March, it signed an investment cooperation agreement with BIM Group to develop a shopping center with a total floor area of 200,000 square meters.
Aeon Mall Ha Dong is expected to commence in 2017, open in late 2019 and become one of the largest trade centers in Vietnam.
Arriving in Vietnam in 2009, Aeon Mall opened its first shopping mall in 2014 and plans to build 20 shopping centers by 2025.
