Vietnam Global Trade Analysis and Market Report

11 Jul, 2022

Its economics and society torn apart by war, Vietnam used to be a poor, struggling nation in the 1970s. There was widespread chaos, destruction, and civil strife. However, since the Đổi Mới reforms of 1986, Vietnam has become one of the finest development stories in the history of nations.

Vietnam’s import-export data suggests that the country is a leading supplier of phones, computers, machinery, textiles, and footwear. The export-led economic policy has helped keep growth rates stable even during the pandemic. Estimates suggest that Vietnam is slated to become a high-income nation by 2045. This will be accompanied by carbon neutrality, to be attained by 2050.

Vietnam has come to be a premier choice for essential industries like electronics and textiles. Businesses from around the world are proactively working towards a beyond Chinese strategy. In Vietnam, not only are the labor costs lower but the geopolitical neutrality and proximity to major markets in South East Asia, all make the country stand a peg above China.

Samsung, one of the world’s leading smartphone manufacturers, gets almost a third of its products made in Vietnam. The company has invested enormously in the nation’s markets and is also developing domestic peripheral industries.

Vietnam Import Analysis

With a growing economy comes a growing middle-class population. And with a growing middle-class population comes a growing consumer economy. In Vietnam, that is just the case. Rising incomes have propelled domestic industries such as pharmaceuticals, e-commerce, and automotive into becoming supremely pertinent.

The nation is subject to various FTAs that allow for easy set up of industries for foreign companies. Vietnam also displays a growing appetite for imports of raw materials as more industries are springing up every day.

Vietnam: The growth continues

As China becomes more and more expensive for foreign companies, Vietnam is expected to receive business that falls out of favor with the dragon. 25% of Vietnam’s GDP in 2021 was attributed to the manufacturing sector. Low-cost production has allowed the nation to emerge as a regional leader in the manufacturing sector. The incentives and low tax rates are helpful to foreign businesses. What’s more encouraging is that the growing domestic consumer market is better than just a cherry on top, for it is the cake itself.
