The second destination for the UEB's students was Dinh Vu port (Hai Phong) - one of the most modern deep-water ports in Vietnam with an output of over 600,000-700,000 TEUs per year. A system of modern cranes, forklifts, and transport vehicles, together with real-time software, helped optimize the delivery and receipt time. The area of the warehouse is up to 240,000m2, CFS warehouse 3600m2, 500 seats for unplugging reefer containers to help preserve goods in the best conditions.
In addition to the actual survey activities, the delegation attended the Launching Ceremony of the Student Logistics Club of Hai Phong University (Kien An, Hai Phong).
