Vietnam's aquatic product exports reached US$900 million in October, lifting the country’s total export turnover in the first ten months of 2022 to US$9.39 billion, a sharp increase of 32.7% compared to the same period of 2021.

Tra fish exports to member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) have been rising sharply, and this market is forecast to surpass the European Union in terms of catfish imports from Vietnam in the near future, the Cong Thuong (Industry & Trade) newspaper reported.
