Vietnam’s textile and garment exports are in good shape as orders surge, with strategic market shifts, free trade agreements, and technological advancements setting the industry up for continued growth in 2025.

Vietnam's export turnover has exceeded 400 billion USD. In the context of increasing trade protectionism in many major markets, it is predicted that by 2025, Vietnamese goods will face more and more complicated trade defense lawsuits.

The increasing number of trade defence lawsuits is a concern and a challenge for export targets, but stronger enterprise competitiveness could emerge on the other side.

In 2024, although Vietnam's fruit and vegetable exports set new records, the fact that markets continuously issued warnings and increased inspections of imported goods shows that, in order to go the long way, production according to the right standards and quality is an inevitable requirement.

The US has made a historic $1.2 billion investment in importing Vietnamese cashews, solidifying Vietnam's position as the world’s leading cashew supplier.

The decline in natural whitefish supply in EU markets is driving prices higher, opening opportunities for certain Vietnamese seafood products.

To increase the market share of Vietnamese warm-water shrimp in the Republic of Korea (RoK), the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) has proposed that domestic authorities negotiate to remove quotas on this product.

2024 was the sixth consecutive year that Việt Nam recorded growth in rice exports, however this growth is forecast to be difficult to maintain this year.
