HCMC – Viettel Post Joint Stock Corporation (HOSE: VTP), a subsidiary of Viettel Group, will open a logistics park in in the northern province of Lang Son on December 11.

The facility in the Dong Dang border economic zone will include bonded warehouses, customs clearance areas, and agricultural trade centers. It spans 143.7 hectares and has an investment value of nearly VND3.3 trillion

The logistics park aims to improve trade efficiency between Vietnam and China and ease cross-border transport congestion during peak periods.

In November, Viettel Post signed a lease agreement for the infrastructure of the Dong Dang cargo transshipment area. The park will integrate logistics services with rail connections to accelerate customs clearance and export processes.

The park is part of Viettel Post’s strategy to expand cross-border logistics services. In March, the company partnered with local authorities in China’s Guangxi Province to establish trade offices and launch cold container transport via rail.

The Lang Son logistics park marks Viettel Post’s latest push to strengthen its role in Vietnam-China trade.
