According to Mr Gijae Seong, Managing Director of Amazon Global Selling Vietnam,the export value of Vietnamese enterprises selling on Amazon had increased by 45% in 2022.

Therefore, we strived to cooperate with Government agencies and service providers to encourage and support online export enterprises. Amazon Global Selling was committed to contributing to the growth of enterprises.

According to a report byAccess Partnership, Vietnam's micro, small and medium-sized enterprises still faceseveral challenges inexporting e-commerce with four main issues: knowledge, capacity, regulations, and costs. Therefore, Amazon Global Selling Vietnam searched and connected 14 service providers from important service categories such as account management, logistics, brand registration, payment, advertising, product selection and sales training.

According to the latest study by Access Partnership, Vietnam's e-commerce export revenue could reach VND296.3 trillion by 2027 if domestic enterpriseswere supported fully and accelerated e-commerce speed to export products and services. Research conducted by surveying 300 micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Vietnam showed that 86% of surveyed enterprises thought that they would be able to carry out export activities without e-commerce. Besides, local MSMEs also aimed to expand the market to other countries such as the US, Japan and many European countries within the next 5 years.
