Vietnam’s transport and warehousing sector saw a decline in foreign direct investment activity in October, with project numbers decreasing by 27.27 percent from 11 in September to eight, according to Ministry of Planning and Investment data. Registered capital also plunged significantly, dropping 94 percent from September’s US$68.28 million to just US$4.10 million in October.
Year-to-date, the sector has attracted 87 projects, amassing a total capital investment of US$562.67 million.
The transport and warehousing sector remains essential to Vietnam’s FDI landscape, supporting the nation’s growing logistics needs and regional trade connections. Despite October’s decline, it’s expected that FDI in this sector will stabilise as demand for efficient logistics solutions continues to rise with Vietnam’s economic growth and expanding trade networks.
