Dong Nai trade surplus reaches $330m
The southern province of Dong Nai recorded a trade surplus of US$330 million in the first 11 months of 2014, according to the provincial Department of Industry and Trade.
The province's total external trade turnover for the period stood at $22.77 billion, including $11.55 billion in export earnings, a 16.8 percent increase on the year.
Phan Van Dan, head of the department's Planning Office, said the key earners - footwear, garments and wooden products - enjoyed substantial growth. The three industries accounted for 40 per cent of the province's total export value. The US, EU and Latin America remain the biggest markets for Dong Nai's products.
Nguyen Ngoc Tuan, vice chairman of the Dong Nai Import-Export Association, said the province was aiming for $1 billion in export turnover by December.
