Vietnam's export industry for cassava and cassava-based products has seen an impressive start to 2026. With positive growth figures in the first quarter, this is a promising signal for production enterprises. However, it also presents a challenge: how to manage supply chains and transportation to be most efficient and cost-effective.
1. Market Highlights in Q1/2026
According to the latest reports, cassava export turnover in the first three months of the year has made a significant breakthrough. Traditional markets like China continue to maintain high purchasing power, while other demanding markets are also showing positive shifts.
- Increased Volume: International demand for cassava starch in food industries, animal feed, and ethanol production remains at a peak.
- Export Value: Beyond increased volume, export values have also recorded stability with an upward trend at certain periods, helping to improve profit margins for domestic enterprises.
2. Cassava Starch: A Key Commodity Requiring Strict Handling

- Moisture and Preservation: Cassava starch is highly sensitive to humidity, which can cause mold or clumping if the transport environment is not guaranteed.
- Packaging Standards: Bagging and handling require extreme care to prevent tearing or damage, which leads to loss of product and affects the professional image when delivered to international partners.
