Video: Vietnamese rice exporters expand reach to distant markets
Many Vietnamese rice enterprises are now redirecting their exports to more distant markets, including Africa, while also boosting shipments of premium rice varieties like ST24 and ST25 to Japan, the Republic of Korea and the European Union.
Aquatic product output in the first nine months of 2026 reached nearly 7.9 million tonnes, up 3.9% year on year, laying the groundwork for the fisheries sector to achieve its export target of 12 billion USD. However, rising input costs and slowing demand in some markets are putting pressure on the sector in the final months of the year.
