Viet Nam’s exports to Argentina reached 214.2 million USD, up 5% while its imports stood at 1.706 billion USD, an increase of 22.6% compared to 2013.

Viet Nam mainly sold footwear, electronic products, garments, plastic products, mechanical devices, iron and steel while purchased materials used for making animal feed, cereals, leather materials, seafood, and cotton.

Argentina has regarded Viet Nam as one of the world’s 15 emerging dynamic economies and chosen the country as a priority export market for 2014 and 2015.

Trade turnover between the two nations continues its rising trend despite Argentina’s foreign trade declined in the first 11 months of 2014.
