The Deputy Minister said the market of Muslim countries with a total population of around 2.2 billion people offers opportunities for a number of Việt Nam's agricultural products.
To date, Vietnamese companies have exported many products such as tra fish (pangasius), vegetables, fruits and rice to this market. However, the MARD believes that there is still great potential to be exploited.
According to the official, to export agricultural products to Muslim countries, Vietnamese products must have Halal certification. In the coming times, the ministry will focus on implementing solutions to tap this market.
