Unipart expands into Vietnam to strengthen supply chain performance
Unipart, the global supply chain performance improvement partner, has officially launched operations in Vietnam, marking its 22nd market worldwide and sixth in the Asia Pacific region.
With decades of experience optimizing supply chains in automotive, e-commerce, rail, and industrial sectors, Unipart will offer consultancy, logistics, transportation, planning, improvement technologies, and distributor and wholesaler solutions to support Vietnam’s dynamic economy.
Why Vietnam? A Thriving Market for Supply Chain Innovation
Vietnam’s manufacturing sector has grown by an average of 10% annually over the past decade, according to The World Bank. Additionally, Vietnam’s e-commerce market is projected to reach $56 billion by 2025, as reported by Statista.
The country’s strategic location and strong manufacturing base have also made it a top destination for foreign direct investment (FDI). In January 2025, FDI pledges surged 48.6% year-over-year, reaching $4.33 billion, according to Vietnam’s Ministry of Planning and Investment.
Recognizing these growth opportunities, Unipart aims to enhance supply chain efficiency, resilience, and sustainability for businesses across Vietnam.
