Network expansion in Vietnam
Danish giant A.P. Moller-Maersk is opening three new facilities in Song Than and Bac Ninh. With the other 11 facilities already in operation in the country, these warehouses add another 38,000 sqm to the portfolio. Operations started in Q4/2020 and Q1/ 2021.
The three new facilities are designed to improve inventory management experience for clients from Europe, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam.
Located 25 km from Ho Chi Minh City, the distribution centres in Song Than aim to offer contract logistics and distribution service to support trade growth in South Vietnam. These two facilities are 10,000 sqm and 9,700 sqm respectively, which will meet the needs from customers in the Tech, FMCG and Retail sectors.
Maersk is also growing its logistic footprint in North Vietnam by expanding the scale of its new facility in Bac Ninh, 23 km from the capital Hanoi and 120 km from the Hai Phong port. (sh)
