Southeast Asia Information Port (www.dnyxxg.com) – According to a report by the Vietnam News Agency correspondent in Paris, the French National Investment Bank (Bpifrance) recently released an assessment report listing Vietnam as one of the top five most promising export markets for French companies in 2026. The other selected markets include Indonesia, Morocco, Canada, and the UAE.
The report points out that Vietnam is undergoing a significant leap forward: its past role as a low-cost manufacturing center has been gradually upgraded, and now major cities are experiencing strong and sustained growth in consumer demand for high-quality products. With rising income levels, the demand for food safety, high-end services, and advanced technology is increasing, providing French companies with precise market opportunities.
Bpifrance emphasizes that French companies can focus on high-value-added products and solutions in Vietnam, such as high-quality processed foods, high-tech agricultural equipment, enterprise digital services, and healthcare services. At the same time, Vietnam's deep international integration and regional influence, as a key node in the Southeast Asian value chain, can also serve as an important bridge for French companies to access the broader ASEAN market.
The report recommends that by 2026, an effective export strategy should move beyond reliance on traditional markets and shift towards emerging markets with clear demand and long-term growth potential. Vietnam, with its robust economic growth and deepening international cooperation network, has become one of the most attractive destinations for French companies in this strategic transformation.
