This collaboration, endorsed by Vietnam’s Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Minister of State for Foreign Trade Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi establishes a partnership spanning ports, logistics, digital solutions, economic cities, free zones, and maritime and shipping.
The agreement outlines key areas of cooperation, emphasizing the development and management of dry ports, inland container depots, advanced logistics operations, and digital solutions to enhance the global maritime and shipping sectors. The collaborative efforts also extend to exploring additional projects in economic cities and free zones.
This partnership reflects the synergies between AD Ports Group’s expertise in developing world-class ports and logistics infrastructure and VINAMARINE’s commitment to propelling growth in Vietnam’s maritime sector.
The MoU encompasses various initiatives aimed at leveraging each party’s strengths, fostering technological exchange, and promoting sustainable economic growth in both the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam.
