Best-selling Vietnamese products on Amazon were kitchenware, home appliances, apparel goods, beauty and personal care, and family tools.
Notable brand performances included SunHouse and AnEco kitchenware, Lafooco cashews and ChicnChill handmade décor items.
At the fourth edition of the week-long event in Hanoi, Amazon Global Selling Vietnam announced that building global brands with made-in-Vietnam goods was one of its key targets in 2023.
It urged Vietnamese producers and businesses to cooperate with Amazon, protecting brands via the Amazon Brand Registry program, and developing brands with Amazon tools.
