Vietnam Sourcing Report: Ceramic & Porcelain Survey Shows 100 Percent of Exporters Expect Sales Growth in 2010
Expected recovery of major markets prompts makers to release more colorful and intricately designed motifs of crafts and dinnerware, pots and lamps.
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, January 13, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The non-profit Kearny Alliance has released the Vietnam Sourcing Report: Ceramic & Porcelain with the support of its partner in development Global Sources, to offer global buyers quality suppliers from Vietnam. All suppliers are confident sales will grow by 10 percent in 2010.
The report features profiles of 35 experienced manufacturers and 117 best-selling export products with full descriptions, prices and packaging details. Included are vases, pots, jars, planters, flowerpots, garden ornaments, figurines, lamps, dishes, bowls, mugs, tea sets, pitchers, trays and serve ware.
“Suppliers in this report offer buyers a diversity of design styles with workmanship to expected quality levels,” said Alexander Boome, program director of The Kearny Alliance. “These attributes – combined with the readily available supplies of clay and skilled workers – are key strengths of the sector in Vietnam.”
One supplier featured in the report, Le Ngoc Ha, director of Hop Luc, said: “The recovery signs of the global economy, especially from the U.S. where our company is targeting, have allowed us to believe that export orders will soon be regained.
“We can clearly see these activities through our website on Global Sources Online, as buyer inquiries are strong and trending up. While buyer demand is steady for our lower-end dinnerware and home decor, we are very keen to secure new orders for our higher-end items as we offer competitive quotes.”
Survey results indicate US key target export market and prices to trend up
The survey of Vietnam ceramic and porcelain manufacturers featured in the report shows:
* 88 percent of makers expect to increase quotes in the next 6 months;
* 50 percent plan to raise prices by only 5 percent;
* 49 percent will target the U.S. market; and,
* 43 percent will focus on more colorful and intricate design.
More sourcing opportunities for global buyers; more jobs created for developing economies.
“Our Sourcing Reports are important components of the Kearny Alliance’s Developing Country Export Assistance Program,” Boome said. “Each supplier featured in the Report also has a website on Global Sources Online.
“This marketing to the Global Sources community of more than 850,000 buyers helps suppliers sell to volume importers worldwide – and gives buyers more sourcing opportunities.
“Our ultimate goal of increased exports is to enable suppliers to create sustainable jobs, so workers can support their families and improve their living standards. This is the focus of our mission of Aid through Trade.”
