Textile enterprises facing major losses

Vietnam’s textile and garment export turnover reached $31.3 billion in the first eight months of 2022, up 16.4 per cent year-on-year. However, according to SSI Research, the picture in the fourth quarter is not too bright, because the number of orders will be 25-50 per cent lower than in the second quarter, equivalent to a 15-20 per cent fall in revenue year-on-year. At the same time, the sales outlook is also bleak, as the USD/VND exchange rate is forecast to continue to decline in the second half of the year.
