Brand building a must to boost VN rice exports
Wed, 23 December 2020
While 2020 has been a successful year for Vietnamese rice exports, more must be done to accelerate the development of the national rice brand, experts have said.
Rice export prices in Vietnam jumped to their highest point since December 2011 last week, as a shortage of containers sent freight rates soaring and pushed Thai prices to a near four-month peak.
Prices for Vietnam’s five per cent broken rice hit $500 per tonne, from the previous week’s $470-490, Reuters reported.
