Samskip Opens Vietnam Office
- company's 4th in East Asia
Substantial growth in Samskip's Asia operations has led to the opening of the company's fourth office in the region, this one in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The other offices are located in Pusan, South Korea, and Qingdao and Dalian in China.
The new office is directed from Samskip's regional headquarters in Pusan, headed by Yong-Jun Nam. Sales managers in Vietnam are Suh Chang-Kun and Tran-Huynh Minh. The office will initially have a staff of three.
The transport of frozen fish is the main task of the Asia facilities. These offices have performed very well from the start, when the first facility was opened in Pusan in February 2003.
"There has been significant growth in fish processing in Vietnam," says Einar Thór Gudjónsson, vice president of Samskip's international reefer logistics operations, "and we see this growth continuing to increase. The country's fish-processing centre is located in the vicinity of Ho Chi Minh City, so opening an office there was a natural step in Samskip's ongoing development of a transportation network in Asia."
