MyanmarMyanmar continues to attract more supply chain companies to set up local operations in anticipation of burgeoning trade activity in the country and in Southeast Asia.

SDV said it will open a new office in Yangon, Myanmar, in May as part of its expansion and investment strategy in the region.

“As the country moves toward democratic and economic reforms, many of our customers are exploring this region and some of them already took the plunge in investing massively in Myanmar,” said Julien Loiret, general manager of sales and development of SDV in Myanmar.

“The opportunities abound in raw materials such as oil and gas but also in catering to the needs, from healthcare to telecommunication, of a population of 62 million,” added Elizabeth Shwe, who will join the Myanmar unit as a director.

SDV will provide various services in the oil and gas, telecom, healthcare, fashion, and retail industries in anticipation of strong demand for transport and logistics.
