Vietnam 2022 economic performance. Vietnam’s bounce back is now complete! In February 2022, Cimigo noted that retail sales of goods had bounced back to pre-pandemic 2019 levels. Cimigo expected retail services (tourism, hospitality and services) to recover by September. We were wrong. Consumer expenditure on services is back to pre-pandemic levels already.

Compared to Q2 2021 GDP grew 7.7%, retail sales increased 19.5% and disbursed foreign direct investment reached new highs of US$10.06 billion.  The manufacturing industry is hiring at a record pace and jobs are being created. The consumer price index is under pressure but remains well managed.   Export growth is at 22% although in Q2 2022 there is a small trade deficit.  Vietnam is on track to hit Cimigo’s GDP forecast of 6.5%.
