From reading to a project decision
- Who this helps
- Owners, developers and procurement teams considering Vietnam Cold Chain Market — Buyer & Investor Guide.
- Decision supported
- Define product duty, site constraints and comparable scope before selecting equipment or requesting proposals.
- Review status
- A dated technical review is not recorded for every legacy guide. Confirm current product specifications and local requirements with the responsible specialists; no fresh review is implied.
- Free access
- Read, calculate and use checklists without an account, payment or lead submission. Requesting procurement support is optional.
Sizing, temperature and energy checklist
- Record product, packaging, incoming/target temperatures, humidity and permitted excursions from your product specification.
- Record peak stock, daily intake, dwell time, loading schedule and seasonal peaks from your own operating records.
- Confirm grid connection, usable site area, ambient conditions, water and transport interfaces.
- Use declared operating hours, load, tariff and system efficiency; preserve assumptions when comparing scenarios.
- Have the refrigeration engineer and responsible food/pharma quality lead verify the scope before equipment selection.
Destination, season & logistics checklist
A project evidence checklist, not a seasonal forecast. Complete it for each destination using dated operating records, product specifications and responsible local specialists.
- Destination & handoffs
- Record origin, destination, transport mode, loading/unloading points, planned transit and expected waiting time. Identify who monitors temperature and handles excursions at each handoff.
- Season & peak capacity
- Record actual peak months, daily intake, dispatch, dwell time and highest stock from dated records. Label forecasts separately; do not turn an annual national trade indicator into a monthly demand estimate.
- Temperature & energy duty
- Use the product's approved temperature range, incoming temperature, packaging and loading schedule. Record site ambient assumptions, door-opening frequency, power availability and tariff period for capacity and energy comparisons.
- Site & unresolved risks
- Confirm grid, water where required, vehicle access and dock interfaces. Record the evidence owner, source date and unresolved constraint; leave unknown inputs blank rather than presenting them as verified.

Seafood export corridors
Mekong Delta (shrimp, pangasius): Ca Mau, Bac Lieu, Soc Trang, Can Tho. Central coast (tuna): Da Nang, Quy Nhon. Northern (aquaculture growing): Hai Phong, Quang Ninh. IQF + blast + −25 °C storage standard.
EVFTA & market access
EU-Vietnam FTA phases seafood tariffs to 0% (2027 for shrimp); requires EU 853/2004 traceability + BAP/ASC increasingly demanded by EU retail. Cold-chain compliance is the differentiator.
Refrigerant transition
R22 phase-out complete; R404A being phased down under Kigali. New builds: NH₃ low-charge or NH₃/CO₂ cascade. Government support via NAMA for HFC phase-down.
Financing
JICA yen-loan lines for cold-chain infrastructure; ADB for private-sector cold hubs; IFC for exporter capex; BIDV and Vietcombank for local-currency working capital.
Questions fréquentes
Is Ca Mau still the shrimp production centre?
Yes — accounts for ~40% of national shrimp output. Ca Mau, Bac Lieu and Soc Trang together account for >70%. Processing capacity concentrated in same region.
What certifications does EU require for pangasius?
EU 853/2004 as baseline; increasingly ASC + BAP for retail acceptance. GlobalG.A.P. Aquaculture for farm level.
