In terms of scale and spatial planning, minimum land-area requirements for logistics hubs across the city remain necessary. However, coordinated and practical policies are also needed to support their development.

A minimum-area approach is a necessary condition, but not sufficient for Hai Phong. The city needs to develop a network of multifunctional, integrated logistics hubs bringing together logistics operations, warehousing, distribution, transshipment, value-added services and multimodal connectivity. This would help meet the requirements for establishing a modern international logistics hub linked to Hai Phong's international gateway seaport.
