PortSide Stories: Ho Chi Minh

PortSide Stories: Ho Chi Minh Vietnam’s Dynamic Gateway to Global Trade Ho Chi Minh is Vietnam’s largest economic center and one of Southeast Asia’s most important hubs for trade and logistics. Located along the Saigon River, the city has developed around maritime commerce for generations. Today, Ho Chi Minh is served by a network of ports and terminals rather than a single container port. These facilities connect southern Vietnam’s factories, businesses and consumers with markets around the world. Among them, Tân Cảng–Cát Lái plays a major role in container shipping.
