CD RESTOP AND 365 GROUP: STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP FOR VIETNAM'S GREEN TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE TRANSITION
Rest stop infrastructure · EV distribution · EV charging stations — Two partners building a comprehensive green transport ecosystem
Continuing the research direction on deploying public EV rental model at tourism centers, CD Restop Social Infrastructure Investment JSC has entered a strategic cooperation phase with 365 Group — one of Vietnam's pioneering firms in green technology, renewable energy, and EV distribution.
The Journey Together
The partnership is not coincidental but the result of a strategic search based on shared vision: green transition in transport cannot succeed with only vehicles but lacking infrastructure, and vice versa.
CD Restop brings strategic land holdings at key transport gateways, rest stop and parking operation experience, and nationwide partner network. 365 Group complements with green energy technology, EV supply chain, and proven market distribution systems.
365 Group Highly Evaluates Partnership Potential
Through working sessions, 365 Group recognized three outstanding advantages of CD Restop:
Ready-to-deploy strategic land — prime locations on arterial routes, completed hard infrastructure, deployable immediately.
Integrated rest stop model — not just parking, but EV charging + rest areas + services + CD GO app — complete ecosystem maximizing user experience.
Long-term vision and sustainable commitment — CD Restop pursues not short-term profit but systematic strategy aligned with national green transition.
Step-by-Step Strategic Development
Three main cooperation pillars:
Rest stops with charging infrastructure — CD Restop provides land, 365 Group co-invests chargers and energy management. Joint operation with shared revenue from community charging.
EV distribution and rental — 365 Group brings e-motorbikes and e-cars into CD Restop network. CD Restop handles rental operations, showrooms, and customer care at central Hubs.
Network expansion — from existing CD Restop land (Suoi Tien, Tan Binh, Truong Van Bang) to expressways, key tourism areas and major cities nationwide.
Meaning in Vietnam's Green Transition
This partnership proves Vietnam's private sector can proactively lead green transition — by connecting complementary strengths, sharing risks and co-building foundation infrastructure. When charging is wide enough, EVs convenient enough and rental popular enough, people and tourists will naturally switch habits. That is the most sustainable green transition — not by mandate, but by convenience.
"When CD Restop and 365 Group sat together, we realized we're not just discussing business — we're drawing the map for the green transport ecosystem Vietnam deserves. Step by step, but each step certain."
