At the annual general meeting of Vietnam Maritime Corporation (VIMC) held on April 15, 2026, the Can Gio International Transshipment Port project was a focal point of discussion. Lê Anh Son, CEO of VIMC, said Vietnam currently lacks an international transshipment hub; with Can Gio, the aim is to compete directly with leading hubs such as Singapore. The Can Gio International Transshipment Port project was approved by the Prime Minister in January 2025 and is located in Ho Chi Minh City. It covers more than 570 hectares of land and involves a total investment of nearly 129,000 billion VND. The project is planned to be built over 20 years, with a 50-year operating life. Recently, the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee approved the consortium: VIMC holds 36% (~7,000 billion VND), Saigon Port JSC holds 15% (~2.9 trillion), and the strategic partner Terminal Investment Limited, part of the MSC ecosystem in Switzerland, holds 49% (~9.47 trillion). On April 15, 2026, in a shareholders’ report on participating in the consortium for the Can Gio Port project, Nguyen Canh Tinh, Chairman of the Board of VIMC, said: ‘In 2026, VIMC will be the investor for the Can Gio International Transshipment Port. VIMC will develop a deep-water port and an international transshipment port to enhance capacity and competitiveness.’ He noted that the project company will require a charter capital of over 19,330 billion, with VIMC contributing nearly 7,000 billion (36%). At the same meeting, Le Anh Son stated: ‘Currently Vietnam does not have an international transshipment hub. With Can Gio, we will directly compete with top centers such as Singapore. We are striving to make Can Gio a five-star port.’ The board also proposed a three-stage capital increase plan for 2026-2030 to meet investment needs for large projects. In 2026, the charter capital would grow from about 13,190 billion to 14,640 billion through offering 145 million shares to the public and strategic investors. From 2027-2028, charter capital would rise to nearly 25,490 billion by issuing 250 million shares to strategic shareholders and adding surplus funds. From 2028-2030, more than 451 million shares would be issued to shareholders or the public to raise charter capital to 30,000 billion. After three rounds of capital increases, the government stake in VIMC is expected to fall to about 65%, with the remainder owned by external investors.
