According to Mr. Phung Duc Tien, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Vietnam’s agricultural, forestry, and fishery export turnover reached USD 56.74 billion in the first 11 months of 2024 — the highest record ever. With strong performance in December, total exports were projected to hit USD 62 billion, far exceeding the Government’s annual target.

This milestone confirms that Vietnam’s agriculture remains a vital and expanding economic sector — and international buyers can access a wide variety of high-quality agricultural products directly from Vietnam.


🌱 Advantages of Sourcing Agricultural Products from Vietnam

Vietnam enjoys many natural and human resource advantages:

  • Over 70% of the population lives in rural areas and depends on agriculture.

  • 57% of the labor force works in the agricultural sector (Vietnamnet, 2021).

  • The country’s territory includes three parts mountains, four parts sea, and one part plains, forming seven distinct ecological regions.

  • Vietnam can cultivate tropical, subtropical, and temperate crops — an advantage few countries possess.

This combination provides a steady, diverse supply of agricultural goods that buyers can source directly from farmers or certified exporters.


🥦 1. Vegetables, Roots, Fruits, and Spices

According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, fruit and vegetable exports in June 2024 reached USD 780 million, bringing the first six months’ total to USD 3.5 billion, a 28% increase year-on-year. This category is projected to reach USD 7 billion for the full year.

Examples:

  • Vegetables: perilla, green onions, piper lolot.

  • Root crops: chili, ginger, garlic, onion, turmeric.

  • Fruits: durian, dragon fruit, mango, banana, coconut, pineapple.

  • Spices: cinnamon, star anise, pepper.

Vietnam remains the world’s largest pepper exporter, contributing about 55% of global output, and durian exports lead the fruit segment with over USD 1.3 billion in the first half of 2024.


🌾 2. Grains, Beans, Seeds, and Nuts

Four key export products consistently exceed the USD 1 billion mark: rice, coffee, cashew nuts, and pepper.

  • Rice: Expected to reach USD 5 billion in 2024, with 2023 setting a record at 8.13 million tons worth USD 4.67 billion.

  • Cashew Nuts: In the first 10 months of 2024, Vietnam exported 613,500 tons valued at USD 3.6 billion, reaffirming its world-leading status.

  • Coffee: Export value reached USD 4.37 billion in the first nine months of 2024 and is forecast to surpass USD 5 billion — an all-time high.


🥫 3. Canned and Pre-Packaged Dry Foods

(Need Image 5 – Gợi ý: “Assorted canned tropical fruits and instant noodles with Vietnamese label” – Alt text: “Vietnam canned and instant foods export” – Caption: “Canned and pre-packaged dry products offer long shelf life and easy logistics.”)

These products are gaining popularity due to their ease of transport, storage stability, and consistent quality.
They also minimize risks associated with fresh produce exports.

Examples include:

  • Canned goods: mango, cucumber, pineapple, plum, peach, pear.

  • Dry packaged foods: instant pho, vermicelli, lotus seeds, dried longan.

Such processed items are ideal for international importers seeking reliability and shelf-ready quality.


Conclusion

Agricultural exports form one of Vietnam’s strongest economic pillars, supporting millions of livelihoods and fueling global supply chains.
With its diverse range of crops, competitive prices, and strict quality control, Vietnam stands out as a trusted partner for international agricultural imports.

Whether you are looking for fresh produce, grains, or processed foods, Vietnam offers rich opportunities and consistent supply.
