The Vietnam Association of Aquatic Products Exporters and Producers (VASEP) reported that the United States is the leading exporter of Vietnamese tuna, contributing over 39% to Vietnam's total tuna exports, and is the second largest supplier after Thailand. There are concerns among Vietnamese exporters regarding the potential impact of US trade policy, especially tariffs. Analysts suggest that Vietnam could benefit from trade dynamics if the US limits imports from other countries, as it could rely more on alternative suppliers like Vietnam, due to the country's competitive advantages and potential to increase market penetration in the US.
