Export turnover of electronic products was estimated at 208.12 million USD, expanding 101.01 percent against the same period last year and accounting for 57.5 percent of total revenues. Garment-textile raked in 106.23 million USD in Q1, up 52.28 percent and making up 29.35 percent.

It is worthy of note that the export of farm produce also saw recovery, but only made up 5 percent in the total exports and did not align with the province’s potential. Hoa Binh’s products were mainly shipped to traditional markets of the US, Europe, China, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Russia and ASEAN nations.

Also in the quarter, the province imported goods worth nearly 272.47 million USD, rising 72.56 percent compared to the same period last year and hitting 24.84 percent of the year’s plan./.
