Expanding service routes and enhancing operational capacity

In 2024, Cat Lai Terminal D made significant progress with seven long-term service routes, including three newly introduced ones—CVT1, CVM2 and VTX4—enhancing cargo connectivity between Vietnam and regional markets such as China, Thailand, Japan and ASEAN countries. The expansion of these routes not only provides more options for shipping lines and customers but also optimizes costs and significantly reduces cargo transportation time. Additionally, the terminal continues to focus on improving berth operations, closely integrating with other SNP facilities (Cat Lai - Hiep Phuoc - Cai Mep), maximizing vessel handling capacity, accelerating cargo processing speed and minimizing vessel port stay time.
