Hanoi (VNA) – Overall♏ solutions to bolster online exports were introduced for t𝓀he first time in Vietnam at a conference held in Hanoi on November 2.
The conference was jointly held by Novaon Internet Group and E-commerce Giant Alibaba to support the programme “1,000 pioneers in online exports”.

However, only 1 percent of exporters know how to utilise e-commerce tools to attract online orders.
As online export serves as a useful channel to provide information on foreign markets while helping local firms save time and reduce transaction costs, experts encourage local businesses to boost shipments through online sales.
