Rising FDI strengthens Vietnam’s position among emerging IFM markets
Foreign direct investment (FDI) disbursement in Vietnam has reached its highest level in five years, creating fresh momentum for the country’s integrated facilities management (IFM) market and positioning Vietnam as a standout performer among emerging IFM destinations, according to experts from Savills Vietnam.
IFM is a comprehensive model for managing facilities, combining technical operations, equipment maintenance, energy management, security, cleaning and other support services, helping businesses enhance operational efficiency, optimise costs and comply with international ESG (environmental, social and governance) standards.
According to the National Statistics Office of Vietnam, foreign investment inflows in the first 11 months of 2025 remained positive, with nearly US$33.7 billion in newly registered capital and US$23.6 billion in disbursed capital – the highest in five years. These inflows are creating a solid foundation for growing demand for IFM services across factories, logistics centres and office buildings, particularly as foreign investors continue to expand production in Vietnam.
International market research firm Mordor Intelligence notes that the global IFM market is on a strong upward trajectory, projected to reach US$270 billion by 2030. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to remain a key growth engine thanks to rapid industrial expansion, fast urbanisation and accelerated digital transformation.
Against this backdrop, Vietnam has emerged as one of the brightest markets in ASEAN’s rapidly developing IFM landscape, with an estimated annual growth of 7-9% in the commercial and industrial segments, higher than the global average.
Savills Vietnam experts observed that the domestic market is shifting rapidly from single-service contracts to more comprehensive and efficient IFM solutions. The outsourced IFM segment has recorded the fastest growth, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.8%, as businesses increasingly partner with specialised service providers to enhance efficiency and operational quality.
Luca Vadala, National Head of Business Development, Integrated Facility Management at Savills Vietnam, shared that the Vietnamese IFM market is forecast to double in size by 2030, reaching an estimated value of around US$662 billion.
