Delaware exporters with products and services in life sciences, healthcare, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology, industrial chemicals, IT, environmental technology and transportation, should strongly consider exporting to to these markets.

 

Why Vietnam?

In 1980, Vietnam experienced a wave of economic reform that springboarded business growth since then. Now, the nation has a growth rate of 5.4% (second highest in all of Asia).

  • Vietnam has the fastest-growing middle and affluent class in the region.
  • Vietnam’s population is made up of over 93 million consumers who are eager for U.S. goods and services.

 

Why Thailand?

  • Thailand is the 2nd largest economy in the ASEAN region and the 9th largest destination in the world for US exports.
  • Thailand offers significant opportunities for both business service companies and manufacturers. Best prospects include those in medical, infrastructure, food processing, defense, and environmental sectors.
