Tam Thanh Co., Ltd. is the only investor that has registered to invest in Port No. 1 of the Mong Duong-Khe Day port cluster in northern Vietnam's Quang Ninh province.
Accompanying Tam Thanh in the VND838 billion ($35.2 million) project is Phu Xuan Construction and Consultant JSC as partner and main contractor, according to the Department of Planning and Investment in the coastal province.
The project will cover nearly 38 hectares of land and water surface, of which 32.4 hectares are being used by two households for afforestation and aquaculture. The remaining area is managed by the People's Committee of Mong Duong ward, Cam Pha town.
The seaport project is scheduled to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2025.
Headquartered in Cam Thach ward, Cam Pha town, Tam Thanh Co., Ltd., established in 2006, specializes in trading in solid, liquid and gas fuels and related products.
In the past few years, the company has won a number of bidding packages, including a VND32.6 billion ($1.37 million) construction materials transport package of Vinacomin-Duong Huy Coal Company and a VND4.8 billion ($201,500) package from the 35 Company-Dong Bac Corporation Branch.
