The export value also saw good recovery in markets signing a free trade agreement with Vietnam, for example an 18.2% increase in exports to Vietnam-EU FTA members, and a 10.5% rise in CPTPP member markets.
Phan Thi Thanh Xuan, Vice Chairwoman of the Vietnam Leather Footwear and Handbag Industry, said that the sector will face both opportunities and challenges in the remaining months of the year.
