Deputy Minister Czerniak noted that Polish agricultural exports to Vietnam reached €175.5 million in 2023, up 14% compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, Vietnam imported nearly €299 million worth of Polish agricultural products, demonstrating the strong appeal of Poland’s goods in Vietnam.

Currently, Poland exports products such as beef, pork, poultry, frozen salmon, and canned fish to Vietnam. However, Czerniak suggested that Vietnamese businesses explore additional imports, including feathers, fruits, vegetarian food, and health-focused products. He expressed confidence that Vietnamese goods would continue to expand their presence in the Polish market, catering to its diverse consumer needs.

VCCI Vice President Nguyen Quang Vinh emphasized that agricultural, forestry, and fishery products from both countries complement each other, presenting great collaboration potential. He proposed increasing the organization of business forums, agricultural trade fairs, and reciprocal visits to promote understanding and partnerships between Vietnamese and Polish enterprises.

Additionally, VCCI is working with the Polish Center for Agricultural Cooperation Support to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to further boost agricultural cooperation. Vinh pledged that VCCI would actively support Polish companies in accessing the Vietnamese market and connecting with reputable local partners.

Enhanced agricultural cooperation between Vietnam and Poland holds the potential to not only diversify trade structures but also unlock opportunities for technology transfer, sustainable development, and greater value creation for both nations.
