The Royal Group Phnom Penh Special Economic Zone (RGPPSEZ) was established in 2006 with the vision of creating a premier hub for manufacturers across diverse industries while generating significant employment opportunities for Cambodian people. Nearly 20 years later, we are proud to see how far the zone has come. Today, it is home to 91 manufacturing companies and 29 non-manufacturing ones from 15 nations, providing employment to 55,000 workers in high-value-added industries crucial to the nation’s growth. Among these 120 companies, we were able to attract 10 new companies from China, and 2 more from Japan to invest in our zone in 2025 alone.
RGPPSEZ reaffirms its strength and stability despite the recent Cambodia-Thai border conflict and the renewed U.S. tariff measures (19%) under President Trump’s administration. RGPPSEZ continues to stand as one of Cambodia’s most reliable industrial and investment hubs. Our zone’s solid infrastructure, strategic location, and proactive management have enabled uninterrupted production and logistics for our international tenants.
As of September 2025, our zone total export value is USD 1.5 billion; the figure is expected to exceed USD 2 billion at year end. Amid the difficult situations, from January to September 2025, our export value to Thailand is USD 145 million or 9.72%, and that to the U.S. is USD 423 million or 28.44%. Since the start of the border tension and the implementation of the new U.S. tariff, the export value to Thailand and the U.S. has not shown any significant drop. Whereas, the export value to other destinations combined reached its highest point in September.
Furthermore, from the onset of the border tensions in June up to the present in October, we have successfully recruited over 10,000 workers. This reflects our ongoing commitment to providing employment opportunities for Cambodian workers who have returned home from Thailand due to the recent conflict.
We extend our sincere appreciation to Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei HUN Manet, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia, for his strong leadership in advancing the nation’s social and economic development, particularly within the industrial sector, and for his steadfast support toward the sustainable growth of RGPPSEZ.
“Crisis is not the time to ask, “Why me?” It’s the time to ask, “What’s my next step?” said Neak Okhna KITH Meng, Chairman of Royal Group Phnom Penh SEZ Plc. “Positivity is not ignoring problems. It’s choosing to believe in our power to respond, not react”. This message inspires the action of RGPPSEZ in continuing to embrace the challenges and find solutions to respond. We chose to stay committed, and we are proud to be able to contribute.
