HCM CITY – Housing developer Novaland Group has signed a memorandum of understanding with Cần Thơ to develop tourism property projects in the Mekong Delta city.
The projects include Cần Thơ wharf at the former Hậu Giang wharf and the Cồn Sơn Island tourism area.
The 3.5ha wharf in Ninh Kiều District will be used for passenger and cargo transport and tourism.
“Close co-operation is needed to make the 13 Mekong provinces and Cần Thơ City an ideal tourism destination,” Bùi Xuân Huy, general director of Novaland Group, said.
“Novaland has negotiated with many famous hotel management brands like Marriott, Wyndham, Novotel, Banyan, and Tree to bring them to Cần Thơ.
“We have also co-operated with local authorities to find suitable models that meet international standards but retain the significant aspects of the Mekong Delta.”
Earlier, the company had signed a strategic agreement with the Boston Consulting Group and Military Bank for developing tourism projects in Mekong provinces that are adapted to climate change.
This year has seen a change in Novaland’s business strategy: investment in the tourism property segment.
It has opened its first tourism property project, the Azerai Cần Thơ Hotel.
The company said in addition to Cần Thơ it would also develop tourism properties in other promising provinces and cities like Đồng Nai, Bà Rịa – Vũng Tàu, Đà Nẵng, Phan Thiết, Cam Ranh, Quy Nhơn, and Đà Lạt.
Novaland is a giant developer which has around 40 housing projects mostly in HCM City. — VNS
