Viettel Post has developed a comprehensive automation solution for the logistics industry, automating all stages of the transportation chain from warehousing to delivery. In logistics complexes applying this solution, processing capacity increases by 40%, and the error rate is almost zero. Viettel Post's system capacity currently reaches 4,000,000 parcels per day, equivalent to meeting 50% of Vietnam's e-commerce demand. This automation solution is the technological foundation for Viettel's national logistics infrastructure development strategy, including logistics parks, smart border gates, and inland ports – infrastructures that connect goods between Vietnam, the region, and the world . Viettel owns all the technology for the robots, conveyor systems, and control software used in storage, picking, packaging, and sorting. Currently, the solution chain is applied across all Viettel Post operational centers, including the first and largest smart sorting technology complex in Vietnam at Quang Minh Industrial Park ( Hanoi ) and a 130-hectare logistics center in Lang Son. In 2024, Viettel invested in Laos, Thailand, and China with the aim of providing comprehensive solutions for cross-border logistics and deploying the Vietnam-China intermodal railway transport route, thereby expanding to more routes connecting Southeast Asian countries. At the Vietnam Innovation Day 2024, Viettel showcased four autonomous robots in its solution chain: drones (unmanned aerial vehicles for transporting goods in hard-to-reach locations), AGV sorting robots (autonomous robots for sorting goods), AGV picking robots (autonomous robots with a 1-ton payload for transporting large loads), and robotic arms (robots using computer vision to pick, lift, and move goods). Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh visited the Viettel booth at the event and highly appreciated the role of technology platforms in the national digital and logistics infrastructure. At the event, Viettel also introduced its 5G equipment ecosystem and green data center model. The 5G base stations and 5G baseband processing units developed by Viettel High Tech will support large-scale 5G deployment in the near future. Viettel's 5G Private network will support production automation and IoT applications in factories and businesses. Viettel aims to develop data centers (DCs) with a total capacity of 240 MW, approximately 1.5 times the capacity of all current DCs in Vietnam. The first model is the Viettel Hoa Lac Data Center – Vietnam's first green data center with twice the average capacity, using 30% renewable energy, and a total power capacity of 30 MW. Over the next 10 years, Vietnam will welcome its fourth wave of FDI, with the main drivers of growth coming from industrial production and exports. Logistics is expected to become a key and rapidly developing sector. However, Vietnam's logistics industry still faces many limitations, such as: logistics costs accounting for over 20% of GDP, the sorting and handling process remaining manual and semi-automated, and the automation rate only reaching 10%. Viettel's logistics automation solutions aim to address these challenges.
