FEDEX EXPANDS REGIONAL TRADE LINKS WITH NEW VIETNAM PARTNERSHIP
April 28, 2026

Federal Express Corporation (FedEx) has announced a strategic collaboration with Viettel Post Joint Stock Corporation (Viettel Post) to strengthen end‑to‑end logistics connectivity in Vietnam, supporting the continued expansion of the FedEx network across Asia Pacific.

 

The agreement covers nationwide pickup and delivery operations in Vietnam and enhances cross-border logistics connectivity, reinforcing Vietnam's role within regional and global supply chains.

 

Effective April 26, FedEx said Viettel Post will serve as the National Network Provider (NNP) for FedEx in Vietnam, supporting an enhanced operating model designed to improve network efficiency, operational flexibility, and service quality. The collaboration reflects continued investment of FedEx in high-growth Southeast Asian markets and enhances network flexibility across dynamic regional trade corridors.

 

Under the collaboration, FedEx will leverage Viettel Post's extensive nationwide coverage, robust fleet, and established local infrastructure to better serve customers in Vietnam’s fast-growing trade and e-commerce market.

 

Viettel Post will undertake key operational roles including end-to-end pickup and delivery, warehouse operations, and customs clearance coordination to enable more efficient, synchronized, and reliable cross-border logistics flows.

 

FedEx noted that customers will benefit from greater flexibility, optimized transit times, and expanded service coverage. By shortening delivery times and extending pickup cut-off times, Vietnamese businesses are better positioned to access international markets, particularly as cross-border trade continues to grow rapidly.

 

Vietnam's total import–export turnover exceeded US$930 billion in 2025 underscoring the country's growing role as a critical trade and logistics hub within Asia Pacific — and FedEx noted that strengthening direct connectivity between domestic infrastructure and international networks is essential to enabling export growth and facilitating cross‑border trade flows.

 

"Vietnam continues to be a strategically important market in the company's regional growth strategy," said Masamichi Ujiie, president of FedEx North & South Pacific.

"By partnering with a trusted national logistics leader like Viettel Post, we are reinforcing our long-term commitment to the country, while enhancing our ability to deliver faster, more flexible, and globally connected services for our customers."

 

The adoption by Viettel Post of FedEx international operational standards in shipment management, tracking, and transparency is also expected to improve service quality and drive continuous improvement across Vietnam's logistics industry.

 

Viettel Post, a core subsidiary of Viettel Group—one of Vietnam's largest state‑owned enterprises—brings strong brand equity, deep operational expertise, and a nationwide network spanning all 34 provinces and cities.

 

With a system of post offices, warehouses, and transportation assets, Viettel Post serves as a critical domestic logistics backbone that connects directly with the FedEx global network across more than 220 countries and territories.

 

Together, the partnership improves international logistics links and supports Vietnamese companies in accessing global markets more efficiently.

 

The collaboration follows the company's shift to a direct‑serve operating model in Vietnam in June 2025, reflecting continued investment in local infrastructure, workforce development, and cooperation with key national partners. As part of its broader Asia Pacific strategy, FedEx says it remains focused on supporting Vietnam's economic goals and strengthening regional trade connectivity.
