Vietnam’s largest steelmaker Hoa Phat Group has said its steel exports in September doubled compared to the previous month, hitting a record high of nearly 50,000 tonnes.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) has denied rumours that it proposed the establishment of a State stabilisation fund to cope with the sudden increase in steel prices that has impacted many businesses.

The Hoa Phat Group has announced that it had received approval from Australia’s Foreign Investment Review Board to purchase an iron ore mine in the country.
