Vietnam (97 MN inhabitants) has been a fast-growing economy in Asia-Pacific in recent years. The horticulture and floriculture sector has been growing by an average rate of 26.5% per year, from USD 439 million in 2009 to almost USD 4 billion in 2018. The sector is expected to continue to grow due to strong exports, Free Trade Agreements with various partners (including the EU), and increasing domestic demand. The interest in the Vietnamese horticulture sector has been increasing since 2005, with over 168 horticultural development projects and programs worth over USD 1 billion between 2005 and 2014.
