Market Growth Factors

The growth of the pharmaceutical logistics market in Vietnam is driven by the rapid development of cold chain storage for temperature-sensitive drugs and vaccines. Under GDP (Good Distribution Practice) standards, the pharmaceutical logistics market in Vietnam uses reefer containers, blast freezers, multi-temperature chambers, and real-time temperature and humidity monitoring systems. Vietnam becomes a regional hub of pharmaceutical manufacturing and export. The prospect for GxP-compliant cold storage facilities will increase in urban and rural areas.

Regulatory bodies modernized things, and someone signed the revised Law on Pharmacy in November 2024. It streamlines administrative processes. It opens the pharmaceutical sector to foreign-invested firms. The law also allows foreign pharmaceutical companies to act as wholesalers, transporters, and distributors of drugs manufactured in the country by means of contracts, technology transfer, and other methods. This enables better quality control of drugs in the distribution chain, which ensures the safety and viability of drugs and reduces their storage and transportation costs.

Pharmaceutical supply chain logistics in Vietnam will likely digitally transform and comply with GDP. Pharmaceutical companies can manage the cold chain better using IoT-based technology. Real-time temperature monitoring helps. Blockchain-based track and trace systems also contribute. These tools improve traceability. They allow compliance with regulations. They increase operational efficiency. Modular cold storage facilities in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities are now emerging. Standards like GMP, GSP, GDP, and GPP have enabled investments in technology-enabled systems for cold storage to maintain integrity throughout the distribution chain wherever cities and their associated populations are rapidly urbanizing and developing.
