Transimex and Tan Cang Logistics — two of Vietnam’s largest inland container logistics companies — have acquired container ships to expand into the liner sector.

Both have bought feeder-size ships from Singapore-registered single-ship owning entities linked to China’s Dalian Zhida Ship Management.

Transimex recently took delivery of the 1,060-teu A Aso (built 2009), which it has placed in service under the name Transimex Sun.
