HCM CITY — Saigon Newport Corporation (SNP) on Tuesday welcomed its 5 millionth twenty foot equivalent unit (TEU) of cargo this year via its Tân Cảng-Cát Lái terminal in HCM City.
The same day, SNP announced it had fulfilled its business targets for the year 15 days in advance. Of which, its profit saw a year-on-year rise of 14 per cent to more than VNĐ3.11 trillion (US$133.5 million) in 2019, the highest-level thus far. The company contributed to more than VNĐ1.61 trillion to the State budget, up 56 per cent year-on-year.
From January to December, the company’s terminals handled 8.75 million of TEUs, surging 15.5 per cent from the previous year and making up nearly 50 per cent of domestic market share.
SNP general director Ngô Minh Thuấn attributed the positive performance to the company’s sufficient investment in infrastructure and technical innovation.
