In a significant development for regional trade, PR INTEGRATED, your Connecta partner in India, highlights new trade opportunities as Chu Lai International Port in Vietnam launches a direct shipping route to India, further strengthening the trade corridor between the two nations. Operating twice a month, this new route offers businesses more efficient and cost-effective access to India’s rapidly expanding market.
The route was officially launched on May 16 with the arrival of the Singapore-registered vessel CHANA BHUM, operated by Regional Container Lines (RCL). The vessel carried nearly 800 containers of goods, marking a new logistics lifeline between Vietnam and India.
With this route in place, businesses in central Vietnam can expect faster delivery, reduced freight costs, and improved logistics performance by avoiding transshipment delays at ports like Hai Phong or Ho Chi Minh City.
To support the expected increase in port traffic and ensure safe navigation for larger vessels, Chu Lai International Port has also commissioned a newly built tugboat, Chu Lai Port 02.
Key specifications include:
Length: 26.68 meters
Width: 8.11 meters
Power: 2,200 horsepower
Features: Modern safety systems and anti-pollution technology
Design: Built to national standards for steel-hulled seagoing vessels
This tugboat significantly enhances the port’s ability to handle large vessels, boosting both operational efficiency and service quality.
For PR INTEGRATED LOGISTICS, this development presents an exciting opportunity to further leverage India’s growing trade potential and expand their network’s capabilities across the region. In addition to direct access to India, the route also connects businesses to other key Asian markets, including China, South Korea, and Japan, opening up a broader range of export opportunities.
As the direct route becomes a crucial link in the Vietnam-India trade corridor, PR INTEGRATED is ready to support businesses in navigating India’s complex market and optimizing their supply chains for future growth.
