Nam Hai Port JSC

What Nam Hai Port JSC does

Nam Hai Port JSC (Công ty Cổ Phần Cảng Nam Hải) is a privately-held Vietnamese port operator and integrated logistics provider headquartered at Số 201 đường Ngô Quyền, Phường Ngô Quyền, Thành phố Hải Phống. Established in 2008 and commencing operations on February 29, 2009, the company operates a container and bulk-cargo terminal in the upstream (thuong luu) area of Hai Phong, Vietnam's principal northern port cluster. Its physical asset base comprises a 145-meter quay plus a 160-meter linked berth, 65,000 m² of CY yard, 10,000 m² of reefer zone with 160 power outlets, 20,000 m² of depot with 1,500 TEU storage capacity, and three Liebherr cranes with 11-row outreach at a draft depth of -9 meters, supporting design throughput of 200,000 TEUs per year.

The company's revenue is generated through transaction-fee-based port operations and stevedoring, depot and refrigerated-container PTI/repair services (IICL-certified), multimodal transportation via a fleet of 20 tractors and 40 trailers, river barge transport (1,000 DWT, 54-100 TEUs) operated in partnership with Lokaport and Bac Ky, maritime transport on domestic and international routes, shipping-line agency services, customs brokerage with over 20 years of experience, and bulk cargo handling launched in March 2020 with 300,000 tons/year capacity. The pricing model uses published unit-pricing schedules — separate 2026 schedules for international cargo, domestic cargo, and warehouse/yard storage, with mid-2025 adjustments — all inclusive of VAT and distributed as PDF downloads from the corporate website. Customers include international shipping lines (YangMing, MSC, SJJ, ASL, PIL, CMA, ZIM, ONE, HASCO, RCL, TSL, ACL) and the domestic carrier VietSun, with go-to-market executed through a sales-led model anchored by a customer service center, call-center hotlines, and direct engagement with shipping lines, freight forwarders, and cargo owners.

Underlying technology comprises VTOS (Vessel Terminal Operating System) connected to the SMARTPORT centralized port-management system for real-time vessel scheduling, cargo handling, and yard operations, complemented by the EPORT-VSL digital service platform launched July 16, 2024 to handle cargo registration, gate operations, equipment orders, and customer transactions online. The company is a Cổ phần (joint-stock company) with near-complete self-ownership at 99.98% as of 2010, operates as part of the broader Cảng Nam Hải port system, and publishes separate service tiers for international cargo, domestic cargo, and storage — indicating a horizontal segmentation approach across container, bulk, and logistics service lines.

Direct peers

• Gemadept Corporation: Vietnamese logistics and port operator running container terminals, depots, and multimodal transport services. Closely comparable business model to Nam Hai — port operations plus integrated logistics, freight forwarding, and depot.
• Hai Phong Port JSC (Cảng Hải Phòng): The legacy state-owned port operator in Hai Phong serving the same northern Vietnam hinterland. Directly comparable as a container and bulk handling port serving overlapping shipping line customers and cargo owners in the same Hai Phong port complex.
• Lach Huyen International Container Terminal (HICT): Deep-water container terminal at Lach Huyen, Hai Phong, opened with mainline-capable berths. Direct competitor in the same Hai Phong market, attracting larger vessels that Nam Hai's upstream draft cannot accommodate.
• Tan Cang – Cai Mep International Terminal (TCIT): Container terminal operator at Cai Mep, serving global mainline and feeder services. Comparable as a Vietnamese container terminal providing stevedoring, yard, depot, and shipping agency services to international shipping lines.
• Dinh Vu Port JSC: Container and bulk port in the Hai Phong area operating on similar vessel size and draft profile. Direct competitor for feeder container and bulk cargo volumes in the same regional market.
• Hateco Group: Vietnamese port and logistics operator with container terminals and door-to-door multimodal services. Comparable integrated port-and-logistics business serving international shipping lines and cargo owners in Vietnam.

Broad incumbents

• International Container Terminal Services Inc. (ICTSI): Global container terminal operator with presence across emerging markets including multiple terminals in the Philippines and Indonesia. Comparable as a publicly listed terminal operator targeting similar international shipping line customers.
• Vinalines (Vietnam National Shipping Lines): State-owned Vietnamese maritime group owning and operating multiple ports including Hai Phong. Comparable as a Vietnamese port operator, shipping line customer, and integrator of port plus maritime services at a national level.
• PSA International: Global port operator with container terminal operations across Asia. Comparable as a benchmark for terminal operating standards, digitalization (VTOS-class systems), and shipping line service offerings — though at vastly greater scale.
• Saigon Newport Corporation (SNP): Vietnam's largest container terminal operator, running multiple terminals across the country. Comparable as a multi-port, multi-service Vietnamese container operator with integrated logistics, depot, and shipping agency offerings — though at materially larger scale than Nam Hai.
