Exporters in Ho Chi Minh City are facing a range of difficulties, such as soaring sea freight costs, a lack of input materials, and a shortage of workers. The city has therefore developed a project on export development to 2025 and vision to 2030, which sets an average annual export growth target of 9.5 per cent in the 2021-2025 period and 9 per cent in the 2026-2030 period.
