DNVN - On the morning of April 24th, the Da Nang City Logistics Association held its founding congress (First Congress, term 2026-2031) and elected Mr. Tran Le Tuan - General Director of Da Nang Port - as the Chairman of the Association.

The founding congress of the Da Nang City Logistics Association, attended by nearly 100 delegates including leaders from port, aviation, transportation, and warehousing businesses, as well as leading experts in the supply chain field, marks a significant turning point in professionalizing service infrastructure and creating strong linkages to transform the city into a key logistics hub for the region and internationally.

Introducing the first Executive Board of the Da Nang City Logistics Association.

According to Mr. Tran Le Tuan, in the era of deep international economic integration, the logistics industry continues to play a key role in the supply chain and is an important driving force in enhancing the competitiveness of the economy. The current trend in logistics development focuses on digital transformation, green logistics, operational optimization, and sustainable development.

Da Nang City is identified as the socio-economic center of the Central and Central Highlands regions, possessing numerous advantages in geographical location, seaport and airport infrastructure, and inter-regional connectivity. The city is aiming to become a regional logistics hub, linked to the development of the Free Trade Zone and the East-West Economic Corridor. However, the logistics business community in the area remains fragmented, lacking coordination, with uneven competitiveness and no effective representative mechanism to voice a common voice with state management agencies.

"In that context, the Da Nang City Logistics Association was established as a socio-professional organization representing the logistics business community, contributing to promoting linkages, enhancing competitiveness, and developing the city's logistics industry in a modern and sustainable direction," Mr. Tran Le Tuan emphasized.
