The representative from the Department of Industry and Trade of Ho Chi Minh City stated that the city was increasingly asserting its crucial position in the national logistics sector. With inherent advantages in international trade and transportation, the city had an ideal position to become the logistics hub of the Southern region and the whole country. The Department of Industry and Trade emphasized that Ho Chi Minh City was continually strengthening its position.
In the coming time, the Department of Industry and Trade, in collaboration with various departments, committees, sectors, and the business community, would implement directions and solutions for logistics development. This includes the effective deployment of mechanisms, policies, and logistics development solutions. The plan involves enhancing investment in logistics infrastructure, increasing loading and unloading capacity, and storage capacity at seaports, anticipating supply chain trends, and establishing a regional-scale logistics service center in Ho Chi Minh City.
