On October 1, 2024, at the Vietnam Innovation Day 2024, Vietnam SuperPort^TM, jointly developed by the T&T Group (Vietnam) - YCH (Singapore) joint venture, announced its digital transformation roadmap to drive efficiency and sustainability in the logistics sector, enhancing regional fast-paced goods and services delivery and rising trade flows by leveraging cutting-edge technologies, especially Artificial Intelligence (AI).

During the event, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, Singapore's Ambassador to Vietnam Jaya Ratnam, and senior leaders visited the Vietnam SuperPort™ exhibition to explore its visionary approach to creating a modern, smart, and connected logistics hub in Southeast Asia.

As the flagship port in the ASEAN Smart Logistics Network (ASLN), Vietnam SuperPort™ plays a crucial role in strengthening trade flows between Vietnam, the ASEAN–China region, and beyond. By serving as a strategic logistics hub, Vietnam SuperPort™ connects Vietnam more deeply into global supply chains and positions the country as a critical player in regional trade. Its symbiotic role with Vietnam’s economy drives the country’s growth in the global value chain, enabling it to “grow without growing pains™” by providing seamless logistics solutions that match the demands of a rapidly expanding economy.

Vietnam SuperPort™ is committed to co-developing new technologies with world-class partners to meet the growing demands for faster, more efficient logistics solutions. In collaboration with Singapore’s YCH Group, the plan includes AI-driven automation, warehouse robotics, and transport management solutions. These advanced technologies will enhance operational workflows, accelerate order fulfilment, and improve inventory control. With nearly 70 years of industry leadership, YCH Group is a trusted partner in supply chain development, showcasing expertise in AI integration, transport optimization, and cross-border trade through Singapore’s Supply Chain City™, co-created with global partners.

“Vietnam SuperPort™ underscores T&T Group and YCH Group’s commitment to sustainable growth and long-term competitiveness. By embracing cutting-edge technologies like AI-powered automation and blockchain, Vietnam SuperPort™ is enhancing Vietnam’s logistics capabilities and staying at the forefront of supply chain innovation in the ASEAN region,” said Mr. Do Quang Hien, Founder and Chairman of the Strategic Committee at T&T Group.

Vietnam SuperPort™ collaborates with global technology leaders to create a comprehensive digital ecosystem that integrates AI-based warehouse management software for real-time inventory tracking, demand prediction, and performance measurement. This initiative is backed by Y3 Technologies' proprietary suite, designed to optimize logistics efficiency across the region.

In addition to operational enhancements, Vietnam SuperPort™ aims to strengthen Vietnam’s supply chain connectivity and sustainability. Its AI-powered logistics marketplace will serve as a global platform, linking SMEs, financial institutions, and logistics providers, offering enhanced transparency and facilitating access to capital for businesses. Vietnam SuperPort™ will also develop a blockchain-based ESG management system to track carbon emissions, supporting its goal of becoming Southeast Asia’s first net-zero logistics hub by 2040.

“Our digital transformation plan aligns with Vietnam’s national strategy to develop a smart, competitive, and sustainable logistics industry by 2035. This partnership and technological advancement will reinforce Vietnam’s role as a critical player in the regional supply chain,” said Dr. Yap Kwong Weng, CEO of Vietnam SuperPort™.
