Industry and Trade sector must seek markets to consume agricultural and fishery products in 2015. It was requested by Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Tuan Anh at the meeting "Discussing solutions to boost export" held in Hanoi on May 4.
According to a report from the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the sector’s export revenue gained 8.5 billion USD in the past four months, reducing 5.1% in the comparison to the same period in 2014.
The reason is due to abundant global supply, importers of these commodities tend to protect products in their markets.
During the meeting, agro-fishery associations complained about the inadequate market information feedback from overseas representative offices which negatively affected the operation of domestic enterprises.
Vice General Secretary of the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers Nguyen Hoai Nam proposed that trade promotion, whose public budget has shrunk, receive a boost through improved methods.
The sector needs to become a national priority during negotiation rounds for trade pacts between Vietnam and other countries in the world, he said.
At the meeting, leader of the Ministry asserted that: In order to ensure the export target of agro-fishery products as proposed plan, the State management agencies, the industry associations, and enterprises need to coordinate closely in deploying synchronous solutions from production to consumption.
Deputy Minister Tran Tuan Anh confirmed the Ministry will focus on seeking new markets and consolidating the consultation role of domestic businesses in several trade negotiations.
The Deputy Minister stressed on solutions for planning, and improving the competitiveness of export products. The key solutions include promoting of the provision of market information, boosting trade, negotiating, and removing market barriers in export activities.
