Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh suggested FedEx Express expand activities in Vietnam and invest in the Long Thanh international airport in the southern province of Dong Nai at his reception for the US-based company's President and CEO Richard W. Smith in Hanoi on June 6.

Vietnam is one of the top markets in the Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa (AMEA) region when it comes to e-commerce positivity.

FedEx Express, one of the world’s largest express service providers, on July 25 launched a new flight connecting Hanoi with the FedEx Asia-Pacific Hub in Guangzhou, China.

Up to 57 percent of surveyed small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam believe they will continue to enjoy growing export, according to a research recently conducted by market research company Harris Interactive on behalf of FedEx Express.
