International Logistics Centre in Bắc Giang Officially Opened
Gear up, folks! The buzz in Bắc Giang is all about the freshly launched Bắc Giang International Logistics Centre. Here's the lowdown on this game-changer in the province's logistics sector and its ripple effects on global trade networks.
Situated smack-dab in the heart of Song Khê ward, Bắc Giang City, this logistics powerhouse covers a whopping 67 hectares and boasts a near VNĐ4.2 trillion ($161.71 million) investment. The centerpiece of this hub includes multifunctional warehouses, bonded and non-tariff storage facilities, e-commerce and automated warehouses, and a complete end-to-end supply chain solution.
In short, this center is like a one-stop-shop for all your logistics needs, offering a full- suite of services in one neat package.
Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, Nguyễn Việt Oanh, emphasized the significance of this project for Bắc Giang, which sits at a strategic transport intersection from major expressways, international rail routes, and seaports. With its outstanding socio-economic progress (14% annual growth since 2020), Bắc Giang is ready to take its logistics sector to the next level.
However, the province's logistics sector has been lagging behind its potential due to high transport costs and fragmented infrastructure. Recognizing this bottleneck, the province has set logistics as a primary focus, aiming to modernize its infrastructure and integrate into global trade networks.
The launch of the centre signifies a major stride towards reaching these objectives, positioning Bắc Giang among the major logistics hubs in the northern region.
Oanh called upon provincial departments and Bắc Giang city authorities to support the investor in resolving land clearance and traffic issues to ensure the project's success. He also stressed the importance of building synchronized infrastructure and enforcing safe, efficient transport access.
The Bắc Giang International Logistics Company was encouraged to expedite the completion of technical infrastructure, adopt modern operational models, and embrace digital technology, artificial intelligence, and automation to streamline its warehousing, transport, and supply chain management processes.
This center is a strategic move that will significantly reduce transport costs and improve logistics efficiency in Bắc Giang, enhancing its competitiveness and spurring economic growth. By embracing sustainable logistics practices like US LEED green standards, renewable energy, and eco-friendly materials, the center is well-positioned to attract companies seeking environmentally-friendly logistics solutions.
