Expansion of Cold Chain Supply Network in Vietnam, the First Step to Constructing a Logistics Complex in Nam Dinh Vu Port in Hai Phong City

 

- Construction to begin on November 14 (local time), establishing a stable distribution base for cold chain logistics in Northern Vietnam

 

 The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF) announced on Thursday, November 14 (local time) that a Korean company (Jeil Engineering & Construction) began building a cold chain complex logistics center in the Dinh Vu-Cat Hai Special Economic Zone in Nam Dinh Vu Port, Hai Phong City, Vietnam.

 

 MOF commissioned a feasibility study for the establishment of a cold chain logistics center in Northern Vietnam in 2022 to solve the difficulties faced by Korean companies conducting business in the Hai Phong region. The logistics center under construction is a 37,843 m2 complex logistics center featuring room-temperature and cold storage facilities. It is scheduled to begin full operation in 2026, and many Korean companies are expected to move in.

 

 Hai Phong City is a major port city in Northern Vietnam, with the Nam Dinh Vu Industrial Park located southeast of Hai Phong City considered a key logistics hub with port hinterland facilities and bonded zones. “We expect the Nam Dinh Vu Complex Logistics Center to help us reduce logistics costs and greatly increase the distribution efficiency of fresh food,” an official of a Korean logistics and distribution company planning to move into the complex said.

 

 “The government has been continuously expanding logistics centers not only in Vietnam but also in Europe, United States, and Southeast Asia to help our companies use stable logistics services. We will continue our efforts to secure overseas logistics bases for our companies in the future by expanding the number of overseas logistics centers from the current five to eight by 2027,” said Minister of Oceans and Fisheries Kang Do-hyung.
