The Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) held its first One-Window-Service meeting in 2026 to review and discuss the applications of nine qualified investment projects (QIPs), with a combined capital of USD 67 million.

The meeting was organised on January 14 by the CDC’s Cambodian Investment Board (CIB), and chaired by its Secretary-General, H.E. Chea Vuthy.

The nine QIPs reviewed by the CDC are expected to generate around 3,000 jobs, and cover a diverse range of industrial activities, including: 

  • Yarn dyeing and colouring
  • Producing calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide and plaster powder
  • Producing canned fish and fish sauce
  • Manufacturing glasses and glasses accessories
  • Manufacturing hair accessories
  • Manufacturing lamps, electrical appliances and vacuum cleaners
  • Manufacturing cans and can lids
  • Manufacturing Christmas trees, Christmas tree decorations and other accessories
  • Manufacturing lights, decorative lights and other accessories.

 According to the CDC, these investment projects are located outside Special Economic Zones (SEZs), supporting the Cambodian government's goal of economic decentralisation, encouraging growth across various provinces. The nine investment projects are located in Phnom Penh, Kandal, Kampong Speu, Kampong Chhnang, Kep, and Battambang.
