Singapore’s energy and urban developer Sembcorp Industries completed another Sembcorp Logistics Park in VSIP Hai Duong Industrial Park in the northern province of Hai Duong this April. It launched another ready-built warehouse facility in VSIP Hai Phong Industrial Park in the northern city of Hai Phong in 2015.
Sembcorp entered Vietnam's market in 1996 by setting up the Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park (VSIP) joint venture with Becamex, a Binh Duong province-based major industrial property and urban developer.
VSIP’s 12 large-scale industrial parks in Vietnam are located in Bac Ninh, Hai Phong and Hai Duong in the north; Nghe An, Quang Tri and Quang Ngai in the central region; Binh Duong and Can Tho in the south.
