Vietnamese rice exports get shot at 2021 breakthrough
Mon, 15 February 2021
High hopes are pinned on Vietnam’s rice exports this year as major markets such as the Philippines and Africa continue to sign contracts to buy the commodity, while many others have great demand for fragrant rice and sticky rice – which are advantageous staples of Vietnamese enterprises.
The preferential tariffs provided by bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements (FTA) between Vietnam and other countries, such as the EU-Vietnam FTA (EVFTA) and the UK-Vietnam FTA (UKVFTA), will create favourable conditions for Vietnamese rice to compete with that from rival countries, the Vietnam Food Association (VAF) said.
