HA NOI (Biz Hub) — Viet Nam took the lead in importing clothes from South Korea in 2015 with value at US$382 million, an increase of 132.5 per cent compared with five years ago.
This is according to the latest statistics released by the Korean Customs Service (KCS).
China is at second place with import turnover of $372 million.
According to KCS's analysis, Viet Nam's import turnover has rapidly increased because the quantity of clothing accessories exported to South Korean businesses' factories in Viet Nam is going up.
The information, quoted by the Korean Broadcasting System, revealed that the country's export turnover of clothes reached $1.94 billion, 4.5 per cent lower than the previous year. — VNS
