Vietnam's seafood exports from January to November 2022 reached 10.2 billion USD, a nearly 28% increase from the same period in 2021, despite a decrease in November exports. The exports consisted of 63% pangasius, 14% shrimp, 40% tuna, and saw positive growth in squid and octopus. The US, China-Hong Kong, and Japan were the largest markets.
