We investigate the dynamics of dust concentration in actively accreting, substructured, non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic wind-launching discs using two-dimensional and three-dimensional (3D) simulations incorporating pressureless dust fluids of various grain sizes and their aerodynamic feedback on gas dynamics. Our results reveal that mm/cm-sized grains are preferentially concentrated within the inner 5-10 au of the disc, where the dust-to-gas surface density ratio (local metallicity Z) significantly exceeds the canonical 0.01, reaching values up to 0.25. This enhancement arises from the interplay of dust settling and complex gas flows in the meridional plane, including mid-plane accretion streams at early times, mid-plane expansion driven by magnetically braked surface accretion at later times, and vigorous meridional circulation in spontaneously formed gas rings. The resulting size-dependent dust distribution has a strong spatial variation, with large grains preferentially accumulating in dense rings, particularly in the inner disc, while being depleted in low-density gas gaps. In 3D, these rings and gaps are unstable to Rossby wave instability, generating arc-shaped vortices that stand out more prominently than their gas counterparts in the inner disc because of preferential dust concentration at small radii. The substantial local enhancement of the dust relative to the gas could promote planetesimal formation via streaming instability, potentially aided by the 'azimuthal drift' streaming instability that operates efficiently in accreting discs and a lower Toomre Q expected in younger discs. Our findings suggest that actively accreting young discs may provide favourable conditions for early planetesimal formation, which warrants further investigation.
