(KPL/VNA) Green and Smart Mobility JSC (GSM), founded by Vietnamese billionaire Pham Nhat Vuong, announced on December 4 that its Lao subsidiary has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Vietnam Business Association in Laos (AVILA) to expand electric taxi services in Vientiane, meeting the growing demand for green transport.
The partnership marks an important step aligned with the Lao Government’s sustainable development agenda. AVILA, one of the country’s most influential business communities, becomes the first organisation to collaborate with GSM in bringing electric-vehicle transport services into practical use.
Under the agreement, GSM Laos will deploy transport services using a fully electric fleet, tailored to the operational needs of individual enterprises. The services will include taxi operations, airport transfers, event-based transport packages and made-to-order mobility solutions. Partner businesses will also have access to a dedicated transport-management system, enabling route tracking, reporting and cost optimisation.
Alongside service deployment, both sides will organise EV experience programmes, knowledge-sharing workshops and communication activities to raise awareness of the benefits of green transition in transport.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, Nguyen Xuan Ha, Chairman of AVILA Vientiane, said the cooperation with GSM offers businesses in Laos an additional option aligned with the association’s green-development goals.
Nguyen Ngoc Thuy Linh, GSM’s Deputy General Director of Operations in Vietnam and Laos, noted that Laos is entering a crucial phase of modernisation and sustainable development. GSM aims to support local companies through electrified mobility solutions suited to the country’s infrastructure and long-term strategic orientation.
