The industry’s export revenue in 2025 reaching $18.5 billion.

Vietnam has set a target of earning $25 billion from exports
of wood and wood products by 2030.

In 2025, the wood industry generated $18.5 billion in export
revenue, up 6.6% year on year, according to figures from Vietnam Customs.

The year marked a significant milestone for the sector as,
for the first time, wooden furniture exports exceeded $10 billion, accounting
for nearly 60% of total industry revenue. This achievement not only reinforces
Vietnam’s position on the global wood export map but also reflects the sector’s
strong and sustained development.

The United States remained Vietnam’s largest export market,
with shipments valued at $9.46 billion, representing 55% of total export
revenue.

Another highlight was the Japanese market, which recorded
growth of more than 23%, with export turnover reaching $2.153 billion. Japan
overtook China to become Vietnam’s second-largest market, while China ranked
third with exports of over $2 billion.

Together, the US, Japan, and China accounted for nearly 80%
of Vietnam’s total wood and wood product export turnover in 2025.
