A plan on inland container depot development in Vietnam for the 2021-2030 period, with a vision to 2050, has been approved. Under the plan, inland container depots will be developed into centres of goods transportation, transit and distribution along with logistics services. Among the concrete targets for 2030, the depot system will have a total capacity of 11.9-17.1 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) per year and be capable of handling about 25-35% of the demand for container goods export and import shipment along transport corridors. By 2050, the depots nationwide are expected to be capable of handling 30-35% of the demand for container goods export and import shipment along transport corridors, and meet logistics demand in localities. About 24.7-42.38 trillion VND (1-1.8 billion USD) is needed to develop the inland container depot system by 2030, according to the plan. VNA Photo: Hồng Đạt
