The Ministry of Industry and Trade, in collaboration with the Vietnam Logistics Business Association (VLA), has officially proposed designating May 6 as Vietnam Logistics Day. The date was selected in celebration of a historical event: Decree No. 61, that was signed by President Ho Chi Minh on May 6, 1946, that formed the Supply Department, a forerunner of the modern logistics industry. The proposal aims to formally recognize the logistics sector as a critical component of the national economy, shifting the perception of logistics from a mere support activity to a high value-added service essential for Vietnam’s competitiveness.
Currently, Vietnam’s logistics sector contributes significantly to the GDP, yet it faces challenges such as high operational costs and fragmented infrastructure. By establishing a dedicated Vietnam Logistics Day, the government intends to create a focal point for policy dialogue, international cooperation, and infrastructure investment. The project aims at bringing resources to ensure the logistics costs are minimized to 11-12 percent of the GDP, which will increase competitiveness of the Vietnamese products in the international markets.
The May 6 proposal is not just symbolic; it aligns with the national strategy to develop a smart, green, and modern supply chain by 2035. This yearly celebration will stimulate companies to embrace digital transformation and enhance human resource training. Ultimately, Vietnam Logistics Day will serve as a platform to honor the workforce and connect logistics enterprises with manufacturing and import-export industries, fostering a more integrated economic ecosystem.
