Enhancing Vietnam-India Cooperation in Logistics at FWC 2025

The FIATA World Congress 2025 (FWC 2025), set to take place in Vietnam, will serve as a crucial opportunity to strengthen logistics collaboration between Vietnam and India.

The FIATA World Congress 2025 is expected to be held in Hanoi from October 6 to October 10, 2025, attracting around 1,200 to 1,500 delegates from 150 countries. This will include prestigious organizations, leaders of logistics associations from various countries, and over 1,000 of the world's leading logistics companies. The agenda and workshops at the FIATA World Congress 2025 will feature top experts and major companies in the industry, who will discuss, offer suggestions, and provide insights on a series of pressing issues in the sector, such as: cross-border e-commerce and logistics for e-commerce, innovation and digital transformation for green supply chains, cold supply chains, investment and business in Asia – Vietnam, flexible and adaptive supply chains, new-generation economic corridors and transport, promoting environmentally friendly transport (waterway and railway), customs requirements, and trade facilitation. Notably, the FIATA World Congress will for the first time address the issue that Vietnam is particularly interested in, which is "The country of free trade and supply chain diplomacy."

This event will bring together leading businesses, experts, and policymakers, providing a platform for expanding connections and developing supply chains between the two countries.

Vietnam is currently one of the fastest-growing logistics hubs in the Asia-Pacific region, thanks to its strategic location, modern seaport system, and strong commitment to infrastructure investment. Meanwhile, India is a key trade partner of Vietnam, with significant demand for imports and exports of agricultural products, minerals, and consumer goods. Closer cooperation in logistics will help reduce transportation costs, optimize supply chains, and promote bilateral trade growth.

Participating in FWC 2025 in Vietnam presents significant benefits for Indian businesses. Firstly, it offers access to a rapidly expanding logistics market, enabling companies to seek strategic partners and expand operations in Southeast Asia. Additionally, the event provides a platform for Indian firms to showcase advanced logistics technologies and services, including AI-driven supply chain management, warehouse automation, and sustainable transportation solutions.

FWC 2025 will also facilitate the signing of key bilateral cooperation agreements, ranging from the development of distribution centers and green logistics initiatives to the enhancement of maritime and air transport connectivity. This event will not only drive the growth of Vietnam’s logistics sector but also help Indian businesses optimize their supply chains and enhance their competitiveness in the region.

With a business-friendly environment, significant growth potential, and strong government support from both countries, FWC 2025 will be a pivotal step in elevating Vietnam-India logistics cooperation to new heights.
