European consumers taste Vietnamese dried rice noodles
(VOV) - Duy Anh Foods in HCM City’s Cu Chi district is currently exporting between 100-150 tonnes of dried rice noodles (rice vermicelli) to the European market at a price of US$1.3-1.6/kilo, up 70% from a year ago.
Tuoi Tre newswire quoted Le Duy Toan, director of Duy Anh Foods, saying European importers have reduced rice vermicelli shipments from China for the past two years and shifted to the Vietnamese rice products.
Vietnamese rice vermicelli, mostly made of brown rice (whole grain rice), is a favourite with European consumers for high quality.
