VIETNAMWOOD 2013

The domestic wood processing sector is expecting a record export turnover of US$3.9 billion in 2011. Figures from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development show that wood export turnover in the year to November topped $3.5 billion, up by 15 percent when compared to the same period last year. The United States, which accounts for a third of the total export value, remains Vietnam’s largest wood importer; wood export turnover is expected to top $3.9 billion by year’s end, which is $500 million higher than the figure recorded last year.

Japan, which trails only the US, the EU, and China on the list of largest importers, has posted the highest growth in wood imports from Vietnam this year.
