The Dong Nai Port Joint-Stock Co on Wednesday put the Long Binh Tan container port into operation in Dong Nai Province's Bien Hoa City after five months of construction.
The $4 million port, the first container port in the province, includes a 5,000-tonne wharf, two fixed container cranes with handling capacity of 40 tonnes, and a 3-ha container yard.
The company plans to build three more cranes to raise the port's loading capacity to 250,000 containers a year, and will expand its container yard to 10ha. It hopes to handle 3 million tonnes of goods this year, an increase of 700,000 tonnes against last year.
