1995

Founded with vision. After a successful beginning of a career in the same industry, Minh Phuong Dang, chairwoman and chief executive officer, made her entrepreneurial debut and founded Minh Phuong Co., Ltd on July 4, 1995. With the vision of trusted, quality and solution focused forwarding and logistics, growth spurred throughout the early beginnings through determination, quality service and a dedicated staff of just eighteen employees. Many of the company’s first customers in 1995 are still customers of Minh Phuong Co. today.

1999

Starting any business is a challenge. Minh Phuong Co., Ltd faced many obstacles of its own as the company drove for growth year after year. Recognizing a growing customer base in the north, 1999 was the first year for market expansion of the company’s operations. In January 1999, the Ha Noi representative office of Minh Phuong Co. was established to provide a local presence for facilitating northern operations.

2000

Market expansion continued nearly one year later in the central coastal city of Da Nang, an industrial center of the Central Region. Recognizing the market as a growth spot for the future, Minh Phuong Co. established its Da Nang representative office in January of 2000. As an important sea, air and rail hub, Da Nang is well on its way to becoming a leading center for industry, tourism and trade.

2001

Having the ability to extend service quality further into the logistical chain is a benefit shared by both the provider and customers. Minh Phuong Co. was able to do just that when it joined hands with Baek-Shim-Ra Corporation in 2002 to establish the Nice Vina Container Transportation J/V Co., Ltd.

2004

New corporate headquarters. In late 2004 plans were unveiled for a new 5-story building to be constructed. Construction would take place on the existing site of the current headquarters. Operations were relocated around the block where the employees of Minh Phuong Co. setup for the duration of the demolition and construction period. The new, more modern and spacious headquarters is scheduled to be completed by July.

2005

A milestone. Minh Phuong Co. celebrated its 10-year history in 2005. A 10-year anniversary celebration for employees, customers and family was held in July at New World Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City. It was a night full of thanks, recollection and vision for the next decade. Moving in. In August 2005, Minh Phuong Co. transitioned from its temporary office location around the block and moved operations into the new corporate headquarters building.

The building provides four floors of comfortable office space, two meeting rooms; large, spacious reception area and on-site dining facilities. Expanding Again. As northern operations continued to develop, Minh Phuong Co. established its third representative office in Hai Phong, Vietnam, the countries third largest city. Situated on the northeastern coast, Hai Phong is 102km from Ha Noi and possesses Vietnam’s largest northern seaport.
