The Ifreight Joint-Stock Company on Wednesday launched the first online logistics booking and orders management system in HCM City.

The system will ensure safety and security and will save time and costs, helping to increase enterprises’ competitive ability.

With the system, customers will be able to easily search and compare transportation prices, book orders online within two minutes, manage orders and transportation routes through informational graphics, closely contact partners and Ifreight staff on the system, and update situations through SMS. Solutions will then be provided to deal with any problem.

The system supports all logistics services, including domestic, sea, air transportation and customs services.

Such a system will be important at a time of the fourth industrial revolution and the Internet of Things, and will help reduce service prices.

According to the Viet Nam Logistics Association, the price for logistics services in Viet Nam is double that of the average world level, which is 10-12 per cent of GDP. In Viet Nam, it is around 25 per cent of GDP. – VNS
