Vietnam exports to be sold via Amazon

Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency and Amazon Global Selling organised an event to announce the co-operation with the company in Hanoi. 
 Besides supporting Vietnamese enterprises with export promotion via international exhibitions or inviting delegations to join trade connection, trade promotion through Amazon’s e-commerce channel is considered an effective sales channel, said Vu Ba Phu, director of the Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency.
 Phu said the agency and Amazon Global Selling would co-operate to support Vietnamese enterprises, especially SMEs, to access world markets through Amazon.
 There will be training programmes for Vietnamese SMEs on e-commerce to promote trade, export goods and learn global sales skills on Amazon.
 "We will provide the most effective information that customers care about in Amazon’s environment, as well as supporting businesses in redesigning product package and labels to suit different market areas,” said Phu.
 Phu said that to participate in this online sales channel, businesses must have knowledge and aspirations to participate in the world market and understand foreign languages and international business practices.
 The product must also meet quality requirements for the international market, he said.
 Bernard Tay, Amazon’s regional director for Southeast Asia, said exporting through e-commerce was a global and cross-border opportunity. Through Amazon, Vietnamese businesses would have the opportunity to develop online business.
