WRI’s assessment

Vietnam’s Logistics Growth Index advanced to 56.9 in July 2026, gaining 1.1 points to secure second place among sixteen Asia-Pacific economies. The expansion was propelled by robust factory output and surging export demand, which drove the Business Volume and Goods for Sale indices sharply higher.
