Thailand is currently Vietnam’s largest trading partner in Southeast Asian (ASEAN) with two-way trade revenue reached 19.5 billion USD in 2021. Therefore, Thailand is currently the 8th largest investor in Vietnam, with more than 600 projects and 13-billion-USD investment capital in total. Both countries are on the way to reach 25 billion USD of two-way trade by 2025. Proudly become the Thai Destination in Vietnam, MM has made a significant contribution to this progress, as well as promoting cultural exchanges between the two countries. We not only bring opportunities for local customers to experience Thai imported products, but also continue to promote exports of Vietnamese products to foreign countries, especially Thailand from 2019. This is also one of MM’s key strategies to maintain a long-term stability, provide excellent customer service, diversify product categories as well as introduce high-quality Vietnamese products to other South-east Asian countries through our extensive network in order to inspire people from all over the world to experience high-quality Vietnamese agricultural products.”
