According to the Director of the Trade Promotion Agency under the Ministry of Industry and Trade Vu Ba Phu, industries in the fashion sector, including textiles, footwear, and handbags have grown rapidly over the years and play an increasingly important role in the national economy.
Vietnam has made it onto the list of the three biggest textile exporters and producers in the world (only behind China and India), while in the footwear industry it is also among the world's top exporting countries.
During the webinar, Vietnamese enterprises introduced to their Nigerian partners a wide range of high-quality fashion products, including: shoes, backpacks, handbags, belts, hats, umbrellas, clothing, gloves, masks and fashion accessories, among others.
Many Nigerian businesses expressed a deep interest in Vietnamese products and exchanged details about materials, designs and procedures for ordering and delivering products.
