Vietnam'S Footwear Exports To China Have Increased Dramatically.

Ruan de Shun said that the target of Vietnam's footwear exports in 2016 was 17 billion US dollars, up 16-20% over the same period last year, because Vietnam signed a free trade agreement with the European Union and South Korea.

The textile industry in Swaziland, a landlocked country in southeastern Africa, is seeking to sign an economic cooperation agreement with the European Union, which will allow foreign entry products to be duty-free.

Swaziland is applying for EU aid, hoping that the EU can immediately pass the economic cooperation agreement.

The European Commission for the development of Africa has revealed that once the economic cooperation agreement is ratified, the countries in the agreement will immediately benefit from the exchange of goods on the border.

It is decided that the European Union delegation through the Swaziland agreement will hold a seminar in Mbabane, capital of Swaziland.

This seminar will discuss the future dividends of member states in the agreement.

Through this agreement, Swaziland will become more competitive and attractive to investors, because investors can enter the EU market through investment in Swaziland.

The agreement will open 9600 categories of products to the European Union and all these products are duty-free.

It is worth mentioning that the agreement is a permanent trade agreement.

Since January 2015, when Swaziland was excluded from the US government's list of non aid, its textile industry has been greatly impacted. The signing of this agreement is undoubtedly a timely relief for Swaziland's textile industry.

This practice in Swaziland is of reference to African countries with a downward trend in the textile industry. The EU's tax exempt market is also very attractive to small and medium-sized countries.
