Its largest export markets included the United States, the European Union, Japan, South Korea and China. In April alone, Vietnam's textile and garment exports decreased by 19.2 percent against March to some 1.9 billion U.S. dollars.
Difficulties in production due to the COVID-19 pandemic were blamed for the reductions, the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association said.
Vietnam, among the world's biggest exporters and producers of garments and textiles, made garment and textile export turnovers of roughly 32.6 billion U.S. dollars in 2019, up 6.9 percent from 2018, according to the statistics office.
