Are 70-80 percent of goods at supermarkets Vietnam-made? VietNamNet Bridge – The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) reports that Vietnamese goods account for 70-80 percent of the goods displayed at supermarkets, but analysts doubt the figure. Vu Kim Hanh, chair of the Vietnam High-quality Goods Enterprise Association, pointed out that there is a confusion about ‘Vietnamese goods’. Nguyen Van Nam, former director of the Trade Research Institute, said he has suspicions about the reported proportion of 70-80 percent of Vietnamese goods at supermarkets. He believes that state management agencies tend to count all the products ‘made in Vietnamese territory’ as ‘Vietnamese goods’ to ‘embellish’ reports.
