Europe: Vietnam’s second biggest export market

(VOV) - The Ministry of Industry and Trade’s Trade Promotion Agency and the Netherlands Centre for the Promotion of Imports from Developing Countries (CBI) hosted a December 20 seminar in Ho Chi Minh City on Vietnamese agricultural and food product exports to Europe.

Europe is Vietnam’s third biggest trade partner and the second biggest export market, but Vietnamese businesses often find their expansion ambitions thwarted by the continent’s stringent food hygiene and safety and quarantine regulations.

Senior market experts attending the seminar discussed the current realities facing Vietnamese agricultural product exports, issues exporters commonly encounter when attempting to enter the EU and the lucrative market’s many opportunities and challenges.

The seminar was designed to encourage expanding export markets for local businesses by introducing representatives to potential EU partners.
