A strategic gateway for Northern supply chains

Spanning a total land area of 40,000 sq m with 18.634 sq m of international standard warehouse floor space, YHLC is designed to address the growing complexities of modern domestic and global trade.

Designed to support high-volume operations and efficient cargo handling, the center is equipped with 34 international standard container docks and 12 dock levelers, helping customers achieve faster turnaround times and seamless freight movements.

Strategic Connectivity Supporting Customer Growth

Located in the heart of Northern Vietnam’s industrial corridor, YHLC provides convenient access to major transportation hubs and industrial parks, including Hanoi (40 km), Noi Bai International Airport (65 km), Hai Phong Seaport (85 km), and major industrial hubs including Thang Long 2 IP (5 km), Dai An IP (30 km), VSIP Bac Ninh (35 km), Dong Van IP (50 km), as well as the upcoming Gia Binh International Airport.

This strategic location enables efficient nationwide distribution while supporting import and export cargo flows via air, sea, and land transportation networks.

Digital transformation and operational innovation

In line with Yusen Logistics’s core value of continuous improvement, YHLC incorporates advanced technology to enhance operational productivity, inventory accuracy, and customer visibility.

The facility is powered by an advanced Warehouse Management System (WMS), providing customers with real-time inventory visibility and full end-to-end transparency. Operations are handheld computer integration and inventory barcode scanning, optimizing resource allocation while enforcing rigid 24/7 CCTV surveillance and international fire prevention and fighting safety standards.

Supporting sustainable logistics (ESG)

In alignment with the Group’s global Net-Zero environmental targets, YHLC sets a new standard for sustainable warehousing by achieving the prestigious LEED GOLD international green building certification. The center acts as a direct facilitator for customers looking to minimize their Scope 1 & 2 greenhouse gas emissions through eco-friendly infrastructure. In particular, roof-mounted solar panels provide clean, renewable energy to power the center's daily operations. Smart LED lighting systems are used throughout the facility to significantly lower carbon footprints. A near-future on-site Electric Vehicle Charging Station will support the future of sustainable, zero-emission logistics transportation.
