CGD conducts market research focused specifically on logistics infrastructure: dry ports, logistics centers, warehouses and border-gate infrastructure. This is data that is very hard to find in Vietnam, and a generic report is of no use for making decisions in this area.
The deliverable is not a set of macro statistics. It answers specific questions: how many TEU pass through this area each year, which industry sectors the cargo mainly comes from, what capacity existing facilities have and whether there is any headroom left, and where a new facility located here would get its cargo.
Scope of work
- Analyze cargo flows and transport routes in the study area
- Review existing logistics facilities: capacity, utilization rate, owners
- Assess supply and demand of warehouses and container yards by region
- Analyze sector planning and ongoing transport infrastructure works that affect the project
- Identify target customer segments and benchmark pricing
- Report with recommendations on investment scale and phasing

- Existing data and industry relationships built over more than a decade of consulting for logistics companies.
- The research feeds straight into project preparation and design if the project owner decides to proceed.

Frequently asked questions
How does this study differ from an off-the-shelf market report?
Off-the-shelf reports cover the entire country or industry. CGD's research is limited to the service radius of a specific project and answers the investor's own questions.
How long does it take?
It depends on the scope of the study area. A study for a provincial-level ICD project typically takes 6 to 10 weeks.
Can it be used for bank financing?
It is a good internal basis and an input to the feasibility study report. A loan application still requires an approved feasibility study report.
