Recently, Tan Cang - Hai Phong International Container Terminal (TC - HICT) received approval for the berthing of vessels with a maximum draft of 145,000 DWT.
Although cargo volumes passing through Hai Phong Port fell slightly in July, the operations of the port have prospered, with revenue and profit both rising thanks to the application of advanced technology. The port welcomed a new service line from the ZIM shipping company in July, and at the same time implemented a project to build two container terminals at Lach Huyen to soon welcome vessels of 100,000 DWT.
The first vessel of ZIM Integrated Shipping Services on the new China - Hai Phong Express (CHX) transport service has arrived in Hai Phong Port. This is a good step in reconnecting broken supply chains between Vietnam and the world via Hai Phong. The CHX route is from Shanghai - Ningbo - Hai Phong - Xiamen - Shanghai.
