Vietnam’s logistics industry is facing fragmentation, duplication, and resource inefficiency as many businesses continue to operate in isolation like individual “islands.” The ecosystem mindset of symbiotic logistics is emerging as a new approach—one in which companies share infrastructure, data, and operational capabilities to optimize costs and strengthen the competitiveness of the entire sector.
Despite having more than 30,000 logistics enterprises nationwide, the lack of connectivity across the supply chain has resulted in inefficient warehouse utilization, high empty-run ratios, and limited information integration. These issues contribute to persistently high logistics costs, directly affecting the competitiveness of Vietnamese businesses in the global market.
The symbiotic model is highlighted as a critical solution: logistics infrastructure is no longer confined to a handful of large corporations but is shared, interconnected, and supported by real-time data exchange.
This approach enables major enterprises to maximize their strengths while creating opportunities for SMEs, startups, and supporting service providers to participate in and contribute to the value chain.
Shifting from an ownership mindset to a sharing mindset is seen as the key for Vietnam’s logistics sector to break through.
The symbiotic model enables maximum utilization of social resources, minimizes waste, and establishes a solid foundation for sustainable growth in an era of deep global integration.
