DHL Supply Chain (DSC) has established a strategic partnership with VinFast to manage the Vietnamese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer’s supply chain requirements in the Philippines.
DSC Philippines managing director Bevan Williams and VinFast Auto Philippines managing director Cao Ngoc Nguyen Duy officially signed the contract for the partnership on October 22, 2024.
VinFast, a subsidiary of Vingroup JSC, one of Vietnam’s largest conglomerates, is a pure-play EV manufacturer with the mission of making EVs accessible to everyone.
“DHL Supply Chain Philippines is proud to support VinFast in scaling operations as it expands its reach in the Philippines,” Williams said in a statement.
He added, “Leveraging our expertise in spare parts management, we aim to create a robust framework for the future of electric vehicle logistics in the Philippines. Through this logistics partnership, with our Laguna facility as the backbone of this vision, we’re thrilled to support VinFast’s journey in the Philippines.”

DSC noted its built-to-suit logistics center is equipped with advanced technology and tailored infrastructure to manage and store spare parts efficiently.
With facilities strategically located in Metro Manila and the Southern regions to serve customers, DSC said it offers supply chain optimization services which streamline the logistics process for VinFast’s after-sales market. This includes effective management of EV battery spare parts logistics.
DSC noted that the EV sector in the Philippines is experiencing rapid growth, supported by rising investments and sustainability initiatives from both the public and private sectors. In 2022, the Philippine government passed the Electric Vehicle Industry Development Act, a landmark legislation designed to promote EV adoption nationwide through incentives, infrastructure development, and investment in charging stations.
The Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines projects that by 2030, the number of EVs in the country could reach 6.6 million units, including 3.6 million electric motorcycles and 300,000 private electric cars—a development that promises to transform the nation’s transportation landscape.
Supported by the Santa Rosa Logistics Center, DSC said VinFast is striving to meet the country’s rising demand for EVs while maintaining optimal inventory levels and swift distribution to support its customers in the Philippines.
VinFast has already opened its first three dealerships located in Metro Manila and plans to expand its dealer network to major centers and cities in the country.
