A roundtable discussion held in London on May 13 brought together government officials, industry leaders, and businesses from both Vietnam and the UK to explore the current state, demand, and growth potential of bilateral agricultural trade. The event attracted around 40 enterprises engaged in agricultural production, processing, logistics, and trade, along with representatives from UK agricultural associations. Discussions focused on key export sectors, Vietnam’s poultry industry potential, consumer preferences, import-export regulations, and strategies for distributing Vietnamese food and produce in UK supermarket chains. The UK, with an annual agri-food import value of 67 billion USD, is seen as a high-potential market. In 2024, Vietnam’s agri-export turnover to the UK reached nearly 883 million USD, a 15.4% year-on-year increase. VNA Photo: Phong Hà
