European approach in Vietnam
A local presence in Vietnam is crucial in order to offer a good service with regards to local trucking, customs and documentation.
We have our main office in Ho Chi Minh, which is the main business centre of Vietnam. It is the biggest city, with officially 12 million people and is more flexible than the capital Hanoi.
Our main advantage is we understand the way how business is done locally and how to pass the information to our partners in Europe. The way of how business is done is quite different and has a very different approach. In this way not a lot of Vietnamese do direct business with Europeans but also vice versa.
