Vietnam, aptly described as ‘the New Asian Tiger’ is rapidly becoming the powerhouse
of Southeast Asia. Vietnam's economy grew by 5.32 percent in 2009, making it one of
the top expanding economies in the region despite the global financial crisis.
In recent years, bilateral trade between Vietnam and United Kingdom has grown
strongly, with UK exports of goods to Vietnam increasing by 39% since 2005 to over
£209 million in 2009. In the same period Vietnam’s exports of goods to the UK
increased from £721 million to £1.06 billion.
Why Vietnam and strengths of the market:
• A politically stable and safe environment
• Strategic location with access South East Asia, China, and beyond
• A growing population (87 million), which is young, dynamic, educated and
pragmatic
• A growing domestic market
• Emergence of a middle class with money to spend
• Literacy rate over 95%
