After the Covid-19 pandemic, the logistics industry has witnessed various transformations to meet the demands and trends of the era. Among these, the trend of integrating logistics within industrial zones has proven to be efficient and practical, aiding businesses in optimizing both time and operational costs.
What is the LIC model?
LIC, an acronym for Logistics Industrial Cluster, is the integration of Industrial Parks and Logistics Centers within a unified and enclosed ecosystem with the goal of minimizing time and optimizing logistics costs. Details can be found in the LIC model.
The development of the LIC model in Vietnam
In Vietnam, regarded as a highly potential logistics market with impressive growth, the Logistics Industrial Cluster (LIC) model is gradually asserting its advantages and experiencing widespread development.
Foremost, the most evident aspect is that LIC projects possess unique location advantages, convenient road, air, waterway, or railway transportation, enabling easy connectivity across geographical areas and sources of goods. Notable projects include the Yen Phong II-A Industrial Park & Logistics Center in Bac Ninh and the Yen Lu Port & Industrial Cluster in Ha Nam, both developed by Western Pacific as the investor, along with the Nam Dinh Vu Industrial Park in Hai Phong.
Additionally, by integrating logistics into Industrial Parks, businesses operating within the LIC ecosystem can significantly reduce transportation and goods consolidation times, consequently lowering logistics costs.
