Turning Hai Phong into a Logistics Powerhouse: Strategic Vision and Development Path
1. Strategic Ambition of Hai Phong
Hai Phong aspires to evolve into a national and international logistics center and a key maritime economy by 2025. Anchored in strategic policies and long-term planning, the city is committed to building modern, smart, and sustainable logistics infrastructure to drive its economic transformation.
2. Integrated Multi-Modal Transport Network
Hai Phong’s infrastructure advantage lies in its comprehensive five-mode transport system—comprising sea, air, expressways, railways, and inland waterways. This robust network positions the city as a pivotal logistics gateway for northern Vietnam and beyond.
3. Long-Term Planning for Logistics Expansion
City authorities have leveraged strategic planning frameworks and resolutions to guide logistics development. Adjustments to Hai Phong’s general urban plan (through 2040, with vision to 2050) prioritize logistic infrastructure and regional integration, aligning with broader Red River Delta development goals.
4. Modern Seaport Capacity
Hai Phong’s seaports, including deep-water terminals and advanced container facilities, play a central role in logistics planning. With continued expansion of berths and smart port capabilities, these facilities are essential for handling increasing trade volumes with efficiency and scale.
5. Rapid Growth in Logistics Services
In recent years, the logistics sector in Hai Phong has experienced annual growth rates of approximately 20–23%, contributing significantly—between 13% and 15%—to the city’s regional GDP. This reflects its accelerating role in driving economic growth and competitiveness across northern Vietnam.
6. Infrastructure Enhancements Fuelling Logistics
To support the strategic ambition, Hai Phong has invested heavily in transportation and industrial infrastructure, including:
-
Highways and expressways linking Hai Phong to Hanoi, Quang Ninh, and beyond.
-
Deep-water port systems with expanding capacity for large cargo vessels.
-
Development of free trade zones and industrial parks for logistics efficiency.
These investments form the backbone of a modern logistics ecosystem capable of supporting national and international supply chains.
7. Outlook: A Regional Logistics Hub
Hai Phong is positioned to become a premier logistics hub in Southeast Asia by integrating smart infrastructure, strategic geography, and rapid service growth. With its balanced approach—prioritizing efficiency, connectivity, and long-term planning—the city is steadily realizing its vision of becoming a modern center for logistics excellence and economic development.
