Vietnam is China’s second largest rubber supplier after Thailand.


Its shipments to China were up 12% in volume but down 10% in value year-on-year. The price in July was $1,291 per ton, down 17.9%.


The Ministry of Industry and Trade’s import-export department forecast rubber exports to China to keep rising in the next few months due to a steady increase in demand.

Vietnam exported over 2.1 million tons of rubber worth $3.3 billion last year, up 9.7% in volume and 1% in value from 2021.
