Doing Business in Vietnam: 10-Week Online Training Program

The potential for businesses in Vietnam is boundless. 

With a growing middle class, an increasingly robust manufacturing sector, and strong governmental support for an export market, the country is one of the top places in Asia with which to do business. A few data points demonstrating Vietnam's relationship to North American business:

• Last year, the US was the largest buyer of Vietnamese products
• In 2021, the US was the 11th largest investor in Vietnam
• Vietnam has been Canada’s largest trading partner in the ASEAN region since 2015
• On January 10, 2022, Canada and Vietnam established the Canada-Vietnam Joint Economic Committee (JEC), a mechanism for advancing economic cooperation between the two countries

As with any foreign country, it’s vital to understand the complexities of the business culture and regulatory environment when doing business in and with Vietnam.
