(Source: tuoitre.vn) According to Nielsen Market Research Company, the Vietnamese seasoning and sauce market expands by an average of 25-32% during the 2016-2022 period. Vietnamese households pose a high demand for seasoning for their meals – and it does take a lot of seasoning to make 30 million litres of soup a day, all the while the amount of fried and stir-fried dishes increases by 18 million plates and 14 million braised dishes during the weekends.
The domestic spice market has lured international groups with products like Knorr (Unilever, the UK), Aji-ngon (Ajinomoto, Japan), Miwon (Taiwan), and Maggi (Swiss-based Nestle).
Fish sauce producers also face a fierce competition with such brands as Thuan Phat, Nam Ngu, Chinsu, Thuy Xua, Lien Thanh, Hanh Phuc, 584 Nha Trang, and Hong Hanh.
Dh Foods, a leading brand of Vietnamese food products, has offered a range of products, including Tay Ninh gourmet seasoning, Nha Trang sweet and sour BBQ sauce, Phu Quoc spice fish sauce and natural marinate for the world famous Pho.
The products are available at commercial centres, supermarkets, convenience stores, e-commerce platforms – Shopee, Lazada and Tiki, to name but a few, and Facebook pages and websites of businesses.
