Vietnam is one of the most vibrant economies in Asia. With a growing domestic market for consumer goods and an ambitious programme for major infrastructure developments - including new urban railway networks, a new international hub airport and the expansion of regional airports - this extensive growth and investment opens up many opportunities for East Midlands-based businesses to explore.
