Indonesian Producer Wants to Invest in Vietnam

Vietnam has become a destination for Indonesian investors to set up business in Vietnam thanks to the ever-improving investment environment and the establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC).

At the Conference named “Vietnam – Indonesia: Strengthening trade cooperation in palm oil and paper industries” that was recently held in Hanoi, the Indonesian Ambassador in Vietnam said that many Indonesian businesses are exploring business and investment opportunities in Ha Noi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and many other places in Vietnam.

According to the Indonesian embassy, the Indonesian 12 largest palm oil exporters and 14 largest paper exporters are planning to expand their export markets to Vietnam and expecting to enter into joint ventures with local businesses to directly produce products in Vietnam.

In addition to calling for investment and cooperation in the palm oil and paper sectors, Vietnam has recently welcomed many Indonesian investors coming to Vietnam seeking investment opportunities and doing business successfully in the areas of animal feed, building materials, real estate…
