On May 28, at the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Minister Nguyễn Hồng Diên and Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Lê Minh Hoan co-chaired a meeting to discuss solutions to promote the production and export of rice and vegetables at the end of 2024. Representatives from the Ministry of Home Affairs, various associations, and related units attended the meeting.
Despite global fluctuations, Vietnam's rice and vegetable exports have seen strong growth due to timely government directives and coordination between ministries. In the first four months of 2024, rice exports increased by 9.5% in volume and 33.6% in value; vegetable exports rose by 38.1%.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade and other ministries have implemented several solutions such as negotiating tariff reductions, raising awareness about FTAs, promoting trade, and supporting businesses in leveraging FTA opportunities to expand export markets. Vietnamese trade missions abroad have also played a crucial role in providing market information and policy updates.
Delegates discussed and identified challenges in the production and export of rice and vegetables, proposing solutions and determining market needs. Minister Lê Minh Hoan emphasized the importance of collaboration among businesses and the role of industry associations.
Global demand for rice and vegetables is expected to increase due to supply chain disruptions and higher product quality standards. Industry associations need to educate and support businesses in accessing information and utilizing FTA benefits while guiding them to restructure production and management toward green and clean practices.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development will continue to restructure the rice, grain, and vegetable sectors, developing production standards and product quality. The Ministry of Industry and Trade will support businesses in trade promotion, brand development, market access negotiations, and addressing technical barriers. The Ministry of Home Affairs will guide associations to improve their charters and operational regulations.
Ministries need to enhance supervision, production monitoring, and violation handling to protect national brands and ensure food security. The Ministry of Industry and Trade will continue administrative reforms, modernize the issuance of certificates of origin, and combat unreasonable technical trade barriers.
The meeting unified multiple solutions to promote rice and vegetable exports, ensuring sustainable production and export, and enhancing the competitiveness and value of Vietnamese products in the global market.
According to the Ministry of Industry and Trade
Air cargo is heating up again in a very concrete way: speed is no longer just a company advantage—it is increasingly a national advantage. IATA recorded strong global air cargo growth and a record year in 2024, and in 2025 several months continued to set new highs in demand measured by CTK, suggesting this is not a short-lived surge.
Air logistics is entering a new cycle. International demand is rising fast, shippers are prioritizing speed and reliability, and exporters face tighter scrutiny on documentation and origin. In this context, the real question is no longer whether Vietnam should expand air logistics, but how to build capacity in the right architecture—one that scales volumes while strengthening Vietnam’s role in regional supply chains.
In recent years, “logistics digital transformation” has become a familiar buzzword across industry forums. Yet inside many day-to-day operations, the reality remains mixed: different software for different functions, heavy reliance on Excel and phone calls, and data trapped within departmental silos.
In late February 2026, the Board of Directors of Glotrans Vietnam attended a New Year Dinner & Dance hosted by an international partner, marking a meaningful milestone in the increasingly strong and expansive collaboration between Glotrans and its global partner network.
In the joyful atmosphere of the first days of the New Year, Glotrans Vietnam proudly hosted its 2026 New Year Party to welcome the Spring of Binh Ngo, with the presence of the Board of General Directors, the Board of Directors, and all employees across the system, including offices in Hai Phong, Hanoi, Da Nang, Quy Nhon, and Ho Chi Minh City.
Dear Valued Customers and Partners, Glotrans would like to respectfully announce the Lunar New Year holiday schedule for 2026 as follows:
The shipment of food additives was transported in container No. FCIU3301688 (20’), under B/L MPRSMUM1806, on the voyage from Nhavasheva Port (India) to Dinh Vu Port (Hai Phong, Vietnam) on 29/04/2017.
Company T (Plaintiff – the Insured) entered into an insurance contract with Company B (Defendant – the Insurer). After the insured event occurred, the Insurer alleged that the Insured had violated its obligation to prevent and mitigate losses. The Arbitral Tribunal acknowledged that such an obligation exists but concluded that the Insured did not breach it.
Under the insurance contract, the premium was to be paid in three installments, and in all three, the insured party was late in payment. When a dispute arose, the insurer (Defendant) argued that the insurance contract had terminated before the insured event occurred due to the late premium payment and therefore refused to make an insurance payout. However, the Arbitral Tribunal held a contrary view.
