Where export decisions go wrong
85%
of Vietnamese exporters are not ready for the US market
A good product is not enough: market research, sales channels and buyer knowledge are missing.
77.3%
name market research as their biggest gap
Who buys, at what price, how often: unknown before the first quote.
76%
lack a marketing strategy and sales channels
New buyers come mostly from fairs and B2B platforms, at high cost and low reply rates.
Source: survey of Vietnamese exporters to the US, VISIA and Ready2US, 09/2026.
The cost of exporting without market data
Quotes off the market level: orders lost when high, margin lost when low.
Fair and platform budgets spent before knowing which markets buy this code.
Buyers already shopping in Vietnam go to competitors who reached them first.
Target markets picked from news and hearsay, not from shipment records.
Excel files bought from Zalo groups, with no stated period.
