First domestic container shipping route has been launched at Vietnam’s Chan May Port in the central province of Thua Thien Hue. This route, jointly launched by Chan May Port JSC and Hai An Transport, will connect Chan May Port with domestic and international seaports and is expected to help businesses reduce transport time and logistics costs.

Chan May Port, located in the south-east corner of Thua Thien Hue Province, received the first container vessel, Hai An View, at the launch ceremony on December 25, 2022, as part of the Haiphong, Chan May, and Ho Chi Minh City shipping line, according to Vietnamese media reports.

The service’s opening affirmed the potential and advantages of Chan May Port, which has been working to improve its infrastructure and services to handle containers safely and efficiently, said Duong Ba Hoa, chairman, Chan May Port JSC.

The Chan May port will expand its container storage areas in the coming months to raise its capacity and receive larger container vessels.

In the coming years, the port aims to receive container vessels and cargo ships of up to 70,000 tons and develop a transhipment area of 200,000 tons, a bonded warehouse, and a container freight station.
