AsemconnectVietnam - Steel giant Hoa Phat Group on July 29 signed a contract to supply 2,000 20DC containers to Hapag-Lloyd - the largest container shipping company in Germany and one of the top 5 container shipping companies in the world.

According to Andrea Schöning, CEO of Hapag-Lloyd, as one of the leading industrial production groups in Vietnam, Hoa Phat's container manufacturing factory meets international standards and provides high-quality products.
