A survey conducted by Vietnam Report in August showed that nearly 90% of the businesses in the sector saw productivity equivalent to 80% of the level recorded before the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, and 60% even surpassed the level they made before that.
It said that 85.7% of the firms enjoyed rise in revenue, up 62.65% year on year.
Vietnam Report General Director Vu Dang Vinh said that the growth of the food and beverage sector was motivated from the demand of the domestic market, and the recovery in the number of foreign tourists to Vietnam.
