With a motto of solidarity, cooperation, responsibility, and sustainable development, Vietnam stands ready to be a reliable partner and an attractive, safe destination for the global logistics business community, said Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on October 8.

VOV.VN - With a logistics market valued at an estimated US$70–80 billion, over 45,000 logistics enterprises including more than 5,000 international freight forwarders, Vietnam is emerging as a strong contender to become ASEAN’s next logistics hub.

Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Hong Dien has suggested the International Federation of Freight Forwarders Associations (FIATA) provide practical measures to assist Vietnamese businesses in overcoming challenges caused by the increased shipping freight rates, port congestion, and shortage of empty containers.

Green logistics development is no longer a trend, it is an inevitable requirement with activities throughout the stage of purchasing raw materials, production, distribution, delivery, waste treatment - throughout the entire business life cycle.
