Hai Phong, Vietnam - A.P. Moller – Maersk (Maersk) today opened its first bonded warehouse in Vietnam at SLP Park, Nam Dinh Vu IP, Hai Phong province. Operated by Maersk Contract Logistics, this bonded warehouse marks an important milestone for Maersk in its journey of footprint expansion and development in Northern Vietnam in the context of increasing import and export demand from businesses.
The event was attended by Mr. Lasse Pedersen Hjortshøj, the Commercial Counsellor of the Danish Embassy in Vietnam, highlighting the strong support for fostering international business growth.
Maersk’s bonded warehouse is strategically located in the Hai Phong seaport area, along the main logistics axis of the Northern region, making it a pivotal logistics hub in north Vietnam’s international transportation network. The warehouse connects with Maersk’s current fulfillment center in Hai Phong and the upcoming terminal at Lach Huyen port, which is being developed through a strategic partnership between APM Terminals and Hateco. This connection is expected to strengthen Maersk’s capabilities in providing enhanced storage solutions and operational efficiencies, further streamlining customers’ supply chains and unlocking the local opportunities for growth.
Customers will benefit from improved inventory control and the flexibility to import/export goods without incurring duties, optimizing their supply chains and reducing costs. Together, these improvements ensure faster delivery times and full compliance with customs regulations.
The warehouse is equipped with cutting-edge technology that ensures the efficiency and safety of operations. The interior of the warehouse is standardized with a modern racking system, sorting processes, inventory control, and an automatic barcode system with high accuracy. Additionally, the warehouse prioritizes minimizing electricity and energy consumption. This includes using spot-shaped skylight panels to maximize natural light, energy-saving LEDs, and installing motion and occupancy sensors in office and public areas.
As the first customer for this new facility, Amazon Vietnam, a cross-border e-commerce service provider, will start its operations in October. Maersk Contract Logistics will provide bonded warehouse services, domestic fulfillment, customs procedures, and in-land transportation services.
Maersk always aims to bring the most optimal logistics solutions to our customers. We believe that running our own bonded warehouse directly helps us to synchronize processes for our clients. It also improves service quality and cost controls. We sincerely thank Amazon for choosing Maersk as a long-term partner in Vietnam and look forward to achieving greater success together.
We are thrilled to be celebrating the grand opening of this new warehouse facility here in Vietnam. Over the past 3 years, Maersk has embodied the principles of customer obsession and operational excellence, driving remarkable progress for our business. We look forward to the future milestones this facility will enable as we further strengthen our partnership.
Maersk partners with one of the leading industrial and logistics infrastructure developers in Southeast Asia, SLP, reaffirming its commitment to meeting the comprehensive needs of its customers.
We are honored that Maersk has chosen us as their trusted partner in establishing the first own-licensed bonded warehouse in Northern Vietnam at SLP Park Hai Phong. This partnership underscores our shared commitment to providing top-tier logistics solutions. Together, we look forward to driving growth and setting new benchmarks for the industry and the region's development.
Vietnam is affirming its position as an important logistics hub in the region with outstanding development in production, import-export, and attracting foreign direct investment. Through this, Maersk has been leveraging its strengths and finding new opportunities to drive success for customers and partners in Vietnam, while contributing positively to the development of the logistics industry and the economy.
