Meanwhile, Vietnam’s major goods exported to the Czech Republic are audiovisual equipment with a turnover of over US$365.5 million and footwear and similar products worth US$229.8 million.
The exports of rubber, inorganic chemical compounds, leather, garment accessories, apparel, mechanical equipment, motor vehicles, and wooden furniture also reported a total value between US$30-90 million.
However, the bilateral trade turnover has yet to match the economic potential and actual demand of the markets of two countries.
The regular exchanges between delegations of two countries at all levels to study the market and seek business opportunities will create a momentum to promote investment for both sides in the areas of civil and high technology, particularly the biotechnology and nano areas which are the strength of the Czech Republic.
