In recent years, the annual trade turnover between Vietnam and Iran has remained at just over 100 million USD – a modest figure considering the latter’s demand for many strong agro-products of Vietnam.
Vietnam mainly exports agricultural and fishery products such as pepper, cashew nuts, tea, coffee, natural rubber products, vegetables, fruits, handicrafts, and timber products to Iran.
According to Nguyen Thanh Long from the Vietnam Trade Office in Iran, Vietnamese and Iranian agro-products hold great complementary effects and do not have much competition within the same product category.
