Garment makers delegation targets US market

Representatives from 12 garment companies are in Las Vegas on a trip that will last until Monday next week.

They are seeking business opportunities in the US, to which Vietnamese exports are expected to top $20 billion by the end of the year.

Last year, Viet Nam's exports to the US reached $16.7 billion, accounting for 17.4 per cent of the country's total export turnover
