Vietnamese export growth impresses Uruguayan press
VOV.VN - Uruguayan newspaper El Popular has expressed its positive impression of the strong Vietnamese export growth recorded in January, with an increase of 42% over the same period from 2023 to reach nearly US$33.6 billion, the highest figure recorded since April, 2022.
The media outlet emphasised that Vietnamese export turnover increased sharply thanks to two groups of agro-forestry-fishery products climbing by 97% and the processing industry which rose by 38%.
Exports to several major export markets all recovered well in the initial month of the year, with the United States being the country’s largest export market with US$9.6 billion, an increase of 56% on-year.
El Popular newspaper, the mouthpiece of the Uruguayan Communist Party, quoted the Ministry of Industry and Trade as saying that Vietnamese trade surplus in January reached US$2.92 billion, whilst the country’s trade turnover is forecast to grow by 6% in the year ahead.
