A new domestic container transport service linking Can Tho Port in the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho and Cai Mep Port in Ba Ria–Vung Tau province was officially launched on May 30 at Can Tho Port. The Mekong Express service is jointly operated by VIMC Container Transport JSC (VIMC Lines), a core subsidiary of the Vietnam Maritime Corporation (VIMC), and DP World Vietnam. Running twice weekly, the service combines river and sea routes, cutting transport time from 48 hours to just 15 – a nearly 70% reduction compared to traditional river routes. It will soon expand to include additional stops at the Saigon Premier Container Terminal (SPCT) operated by DP World, and Saigon Hiep Phuoc Port under VIMC. The route is also set to connect with VIMC Lines’ broader domestic and international networks, covering Hai Phong, Da Nang, Quy Nhon, HCM City, as well as Kolkata (India) and Port Klang (Malaysia).
