INTERNATIONAL TRADE SCENARIO OF VIETNAM AND TURKEY
ABSTRACT
Vietnam is a very vibrant country
with almost all the facilities and infrastructure that are required to lead a
happy and stress-free life. In the past few years, the pace at which Vietnam is
growing and heading towards a developed economy is commendable. The nation is
growing in all areas and domains, starting from primary areas like agriculture
to the most complex domains like machine manufacturing, automobiles, and
precious stones, every sector is experiencing positive growth. The GDP of the
country is also increasing at an annual rate of 2.6%.
Unlike Vietnam, the economic picture
of Turkey is not that great at present as a massive earthquake hit the country
and left everything to pieces. Until the first week of February 2023, Turkey
was also growing at a good speed. The bilateral trade relations of Turkey were
just next to amazing and profitable. Until 2021, the annual GDP growth of
Turkey was 11.4%.
In this blog, we are going to see the
current scenario of both countries with respect to their total trade and their
profitability scale. We will see that by how much margins Vietnam Trade Data
and Turkey Trade Data are
into trade deficit or trade surplus at present.

TURKEY EXPERIENCES A DECLINE IN TRADE
GROWTH DUE TO THE EARTHQUAKE
Everything was in the court for
Turkey until a massive earthquake shook the nation and took away everything
along with it. It was 6th February 2023 when the country experienced
one of the biggest earthquakes of all time. This natural calamity has disturbed
the functioning of nearly every sector in the nation, including foreign trade.
Turkey is also on the list of most rapidly developing countries in the world
with a GDP growth of 11.2% every year. For at least some time now, the nation
is in the rebuilding phase and all the damage is getting reconstructed so that
the nation can come on track as soon as possible.
In the month of February 2023, as per
Turkey Trade Data of that year, Turkey had a trade deficit of a whopping
USD 12.2 billion. This deficit has been growing every year by 53%. The primary
reason behind this deficit is the earthquake.
Due to damaged machines and factories, the Turkey Export Data
showed a drop of 6.4% while imports grew by 10.6% which led to the widening of
the trade deficit even more. On examining the Turkey Import Data in Q1,
it was found that there was a rise of 858% in total unprocessed gold.
CONCLUSION
As we reach the end of this
informative and insightful blog, we would like to say that Vietnam is in a
better position than Turkey as the nation is growing at its full pace
currently, unlike Turkey which needs some time to get reconstructed and start
working like before. Moreover, Vietnam offers the most affordable and efficient
labor to other nations that are attracting huge investments from big players
and companies in the market. In a nutshell, it is a quite good option for all
traders and marketers to start their trade with the Vietnamese market at
present. The Turkish market can be targeted later once it starts all its
functions in full.
