EV Cargo launches ops in Vietnam, expands in SA

EV Cargo plans to launch its own operations in Vietnam as it continues expanding in Southeast Asia. The main EV Cargo office, located in Ho Chi Minh City, will manage the provision of air and sea freight forwarding, customs brokerage, warehousing, and cross-border e-commerce services, along with cargo handling facilities in Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi and Haiphong, “enabling buyer’s consolidation, multi-country consolidation and LCL groupage services, all powered by EV Cargo people and systems”, said EV Cargo. Headed by Ruby Nguyen, managing director EV Cargo Vietnam, the new operation in Vietnam will be fully integrated into EV Cargo’s global logistics execution platform, which manages the movement by air, sea and road of merchandise for its customers between 2,400 country pairs every year. As one of the world’s fastest-growing economic regions and logistics markets, as well as being an important sourcing origin for retailers and consumer goods brands, Southeast Asia represents a key strategic market for EV Cargo.
