Finding the right Vietnam Manufacturing is getting easier, but it is not as easy as in China and there are still many challenges. One of the main challenges with seeking suppliers is that Vietnam’s market environment is fractured. Although Vietnam is the world’s third fastest-growing economy, there are still growing pains in the region. While finding a supplier, it sometimes seems like the data can be hard to come by without really being there. However, there are some tools to help you out. The best ways to find a supplier in Vietnam are compiled in this guide.

Alibaba
Even though Alibaba is a Chinese company whose focus is on China, they still have a very impressive list of Vietnamese suppliers. For starting out, you can actually use Alibaba as they allow you to sort by country — Simply select Vietnam on the country tab.
Vietnam Export
A good modern website that maintains a large database of verified factories in Vietnam. The website is endorsed by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Vietnam. The website is much better to use than others due to its quality. In addition to the database, they provide a ton of industry-specific information and news. The website also promotes agricultural products such as coffee and Lychee, which is often difficult to find.
Vietnam Manufacturers
Founded in 2009, Vietnam Manufacturers started as a trade journal to promote Vietnamese companies and business interests worldwide. They have since expanded and now provide a large searchable database, trade show promotions, and industry-specific publications.
VTown.vn
Vtown.vn is owned by Washin Engine Co. and is actually intended to be a database of Japanese companies that do manufacturing and business in Vietnam. Regardless they maintain a very good database of Vietnamese-based manufacturers that are in English and easy to search. Since the factories in their database are largely Japanese managed you tend to find manufacturers that have much higher quality control. I have used this database and found good suppers through them.
VietnamAZ
VietnamAZ is made for American Companies who are looking to buy and do business in Vietnam. They maintain a large database of suppliers.
VietnameseMade.com
VietnameseMade is another database of manufacturers that focus on the Vietnamese market. It is a B2B trade portal to help connect buyers around the world to sellers in Vietnam.
VCCI News
While the main focus on the website is to provide news to exporters in Vietnam they do maintain a directory of business in Vietnam. The database is a little simple and organized by category so it’s not the easiest to use.
Global Sources
Global sources is a Hong Kong-based company that provides a very well-vetted list of suppliers and puts on several trade shows. Global Sources was started in 1960 and it’s first suppliers’ databases were published on CD-Roms. Global Sources also runs a sourcing trade show that runs in the gaps of the Canton Fair.
Vietnam Credit
This website technically isn’t a way to find suppliers but is a registry of business in Vietnam that you can use to look up registration and creditworthiness. This is a great tool to cross-reference and double-check any suppliers you have found.
