According to Nguyen Hoai Nam, Vice Secretary of the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP), Vietnam enjoyed the strongest growth of seafood trade with China among the main markets in the 2018 – 2022 period. China has become the 2nd largest seafood importer of Vietnam after the US.

Nam said Guangxi is the third largest locality in China in terms of importing Vietnamese seafood, after Guangdong and Zhejiang, accounting for 6% of the volume and 11% of the value of seafood imported from Vietnam.

Vietnam is the biggest supplier of seafood for Guangxi, accounting for 69% of the volume and 75% of the locality’s import value.

From these advantages, Nam underlined the need for Vietnam to enhance trade exchange between businesses and Chinese localities, and speed up the approval process for enterprises registered to export seafood to China.

Agencies need to update and provide information for Vietnamese exporters on the demand and regulations of markets and localities of China.
