In 2018, Vietnam imported 462,000 tonnes of palm oil and palm oil products from Malaysia.

Today, palm oil accounts for 60% of oils and fats consumed in Vietnam, which has a population of over 90 million people. “Red palm oil has high concentrations of beta carotene which prevents eyesight deterioration, especially for children, and vitamin E tocotrienols, an antioxidant to help prevent a number of ailments and diseases.”
