Vietnam's export value grows strongly in January
HANOI - Vietnam's export value in January increased 19.6% year-on-year to
nearly US$1.7 billion, the highest level in recent years.
Registering a high growth in export value was crude oil, with $412 million;
garments, $267 million; footwear, $224 million; seafood, $126 million; and
wood furniture, $71 million.
Rice exports increased in both volume and value, reaching 700,000 tonnes,
including 320,000 tonnes to the Philippines.
Experts have attributed the export increase to businesses' efforts to ensure
sufficient supply of material inputs since late last year and their active
production for export.
Many seminars have been organized in the textile and garment industry to
discuss ways to overcome difficulties and challenges in 2005, including
fierce competition with potential suppliers such as China. Seminars to
introduce new technologies and material suppliers have brought about initial
results. Many enterprises have invested in producing products of high
economic value such as suits and jeans. Viet Tien, Nha Be and Phuong Dong
garment companies and Phong Phu and Hanoi textile mills have gained
production contracts to mid-2005.
The footwear industry has also gained production orders from Europe and the
United States. Its enterprises, especially private enterprises, have
invested in modern equipment and technology to meet growing demand.
The Ministry of Trade predicts 21% growth or $6.4 billion for the European
market alone. Exports to this market are mainly footwear, garments,
textiles, aquatic products, and coffee. The ministry said it is still too
early to make any optimistic forecasts on the country's exports for 2005,
but signs in the first month of the year showed that it will not be so
difficult to achieve the yearly export targets provided there is stable
legal support from state management agencies.
The garment and textiles sector is forecast to obtain high revenues in the
coming months due to a surge in the importation of raw materials such as
cotton and cloth in January, which increased by between 30-100%.
In addition, a number of agricultural products such as timber, rubber,
coffee and rice have won major export contracts. Some products such as
rubber have gained contracts for exportation for the whole year.
Most farm produce will be sold at high prices in the world market for months
to come due to poor harvests.
