WHY VIETNAM
» Vietnam is considered as one of the fastest growing and high potential Asian countries, as far as livestock numbers and feed production is concerned.
» Vietnam’s average chicken consumption per capita is forecasted to expand to 16.6 kg by 2021, as predicted by Frost & Sullivan. To meet this projection, DBS Bank estimates that 264 new breeding and 694 new commercial farms will need to be added.
» The Vietnamese government is pushing to reform and modernise its meat processing industry to meet this growing demand, as well as consumers’ expectations for clean and safe. The number of livestock killed by industrial methods is expected to increase from 12.4% in 2010 to 35% by 2020. Vietnam’s dairy market is predicted to double in size by 2020, reaching US$8.2 billion as the population is expected to increase by five million and dairy consumption to rise by a CAGR of 7%.

ABOUT VIETNAM
Introduction
Vietnam is a Southeast Asian country on the South China Sea known for its beaches, rivers, Buddhist pagodas and bustling cities. Hanoi, the capital, pays homage to the nation’s iconic Communist-era leader, Ho Chi Minh, via a huge marble mausoleum. Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) has French colonial landmarks, plus Vietnamese War history museums and the Cu Chi tunnels, used by Viet Cong soldiers.
Religion
The dominant religious belief was Buddhism; however believers practice a mixture of Mahayana Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. Though 50% of the population is nominally Buddhist, the government Office of Religious Affairs estimates that only 11% of the population are practicing Buddhist. Christianity was first brought to Vietnam in the 17th century by Roman Catholic missionaries. Under French rule, Christianity prospered, and when Vietnam restored its independence in 1954, there were more than two million Catholics in the country, a population that increased to between six and seven million in 1998. Estimates indicate that 8 – 10% of the population are Roman Catholics. There are anywhere between 421,000 to 1.6 million Protestants in the country. About 65,000 people are Muslim, primarily Sunni. About 54,000 people are Hindu, most of whom are ethnic Cham. (Source: Encyclopedia.com | 2007).
Languages
The official language is Vietnamese (Quoc ngu). A tonal language, it bears similarities to Khmer, Thai and Chinese, and at least one-third of the vocabulary is derived from Chinese. Most of minority groups have their own spoken languages, and some have their own writing systems, but all children receive instruction in the national language. Other languages include Chinese, English, French, Khmer, and the tribal languages of Mon-Khmer and Malayo-Polynesian. (Source: Encyclopedia.com | 2007).
Local time in the Vietnam is GMT+7 hours, even if you travel to other provinces.
Climate
Temperatures in Ho Chi Minh City vary only from 18 – 33ºC (64 – 91ºF) throughout the year. Temperatures in the Central Highlands are somewhat cooler, ranging from a mean of about 17ºC (63ºF) in winter to 20ºC (68ºF) in summer.

VIETNAM'S LIVESTOCK
Being a strategic industry and has a crucial potential for the advancement of the Vietnam’s agriculture sector, livestock industry has witnessed a stable growth in the recent years, accounting for more than one quarter (27%) of the sector’s GDP in the first half of 2023. In 2022, the livestock business in Vietnam has registered a significant growth, reaching revenue of 21 billion dollars, equivalent to a rise of 5% to 6% compared to 2021.
Vietnam’s outstanding economic and social development in recent times has brought many new opportunities for the livestock industry. For instance, Vietnam has the 7th fastest growing middle class in the world , reaching 50 million people by 2030. Young population, rapid urbanization and increasing income in both urban and rural areas drive the positive change of domestic livestock industry and food production.
Additionally, Vietnam’s Free Trade Agreements are boosting the integration of the livestock’s products into the largest consumer’s markets in the world. With the increasing government support and technology advancement, Vietnam’s livestock market is expected to grow 4% to 5% per year by 2025 and 3% to 4% from 2026 to 2030.
