Vietnam world's 6th largest fibre-yarn exporter, leaves behind S Korea

Meanwhile, the country exported textiles, garments, fibre, yarn and fabric worth $18.73 billion during the period—a rise of 20.81 per cent year on year. That includes $14.99 billion in textiles-garments exports (up by 22.2 per cent), $376.8 million in geotextiles (up by 27 per cent) and $979.8 million in materials (up by 19.2 per cent).

The United States and Europe reducing shipments from China has offered Vietnam scope to expand its market share, according to a Vietnamese media report.

Vietnam’s economic integration with the world, especially signing of free trade agreements, also offers enough scope for breakthrough developments in the fibre and yarn segments.
