Authorities in Da Nang, Vietnam have kicked off a large-scale development of the new Lien Chieu container port, designed as a green and smart facility with a planned capacity of up to 5.7 million TEU per year, aiming to turn the city into a key logistics hub.

The city of Da Nang in central Vietnam has announced the launch of a major development project for the Lien Chieu container port, promoted as a next‑generation green and smart port. The first phase of common infrastructure, worth more than VND 3.4 trillion, was completed at the end of March 2026, paving the way for the start of the main container terminal scheme with a total investment of about VND 45.27 trillion.
