Nghe An's total import turnover from New Zealand in 2022 reached 619.2 thousand USD; in the first 7 months of 2023, it reached 592.6 thousand USD, including production materials (349 thousand USD), chemicals (212 thousand USD), machinery, equipment, tools, and other spare parts (30.9 thousand USD).

According to the assessment, Nghe An is one of the localities with great potential and advantages in attracting foreign investment in general, attracting investment from Australia in particular, but so far the results of attracting investment from Australia have not been commensurate with the potential of the parties. The representative of the Department of Industry and Trade said that so far Nghe An has not attracted large-scale investors with prestigious brands from Australia to implement large-scale projects that are a driving force for the socio-economic development of the province. Currently, Australian enterprises coming to learn about and invest in Nghe An are mainly enterprises producing agriculture and products serving agriculture.
