Trade has become a pillar of the growing bilateral relationship between Viet Nam and the US, Vice Chairman of the Viet Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) Hoang Quang Phong said on Tuesday.
Viet Nam''s export turnover of Vietnamese goods to the 27 EU member countries has skyrocketed after eight months of implementing EVFTA, reaching nearly US$4.8 billion.
The EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) has clearly helped promote trade between Viet Nam and Sweden, with Viet Nam’s export turnover to the country in January surging 99.94 per cent year-on-year.
Viet Nam''s export turnover to Japan increased to US$13.65 billion in
2013, a spike of 4.5 per cent over the previous year, according to the
General Department of Customs.
