Vietnamese coffee increases and strives to find a foothold in the Chinese market,

Tea is the traditional drink of the Chinese with a very long history of trading with many other countries around the world. But now, coffee is emerging as a potential drink that makes China becoming an important market.

Vietnamese beverage industry is paying more and more attention to this huge market, in which the coffee sector sees a bright future if it finds a foothold in the Chinese market.

According to the Department of Trade Promotion, Vietnam’s beverage export has made many new strides; and built a reputation in the world market in recent years. With the largest population in the world, China is a very potential market for many Vietnamese products, including beverages. Vietnamese tea and coffee are holding good positions in the Chinese market. Currently, tea is still China’s traditional drink and is widely purchased in the country, but demand for coffee is on the rise.

Besides, China’s social development, changing lifestyle also contribute to the increasing demand for instant coffee in the country. These factors, in addition to its close geographical location; can give Vietnam’s beverage industry a very advantageous position in comparison with other producers.

According to market research firm Mordor Intelligence; the Chinese coffee market is forecasted to grow at an average of 10.42% per year between 2022 and 2027.

Currently, there are nearly 80 countries and territories supplying coffee and coffee products to China. Among those, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brazil, etc., are in a group of main suppliers.

According to the Department of Trade Promotion, China is a large but highly competitive market. Therefore, to export Vietnamese beverages to this market, Vietnamese enterprises are actively promoting trade; innovating product designs and packaging, and improving quality to meet the increasing demand of Chinese consumers. In addition, beverage exporters also focus on promoting their products and brands on communication channels.

There have been Vietnamese coffee enterprises penetrating deeply into the Chinese market and have a strong foothold in this market.

According to Deputy Director of the Export Promotion Center (Trade Promotion Agency), Brazil is the largest consumer market in South America with a population of up to 200 million people. On average, each year, Brazil imports more than $236 billion of goods; of which 30% of the imported goods come from Asia.

Currently, Brazil is Vietnam’s largest trading partner in South America; while Vietnam is also Brazil’s largest trading partner in Southeast Asia. However, the trade relationship between the two countries is still modest, Vietnam’s export to this market only accounts for 1.4% of Brazil’s import demand.
