Canada sees strong rise in agro-food exports to Vietnam

Canada has achieved a remarkable increase in its agro-food exports to Vietnam, said a senior trade commissioner at the Canadian consulate general in HCMC.

Nadin Nanji demonstrated that Canada’s agro-food exports to Vietnam last year jumped to US$69 million, a stark increase from US$17 million in 2004. He provided the Daily with this figure before the launch reception for “The Great Taste of Canada” - a food promotion featuring the gastronomic quality ingredients of the North American country.

Nanji said the Canadian consulate organized the event to introduce a variety of seafood including live lobster, geoduck, oysters, Dungeness crab, mussels and scallops, as well as Alberta beef, wines and cherries. He added that the Canadian menu would be offered to the public at the Reflections Restaurant of the Caravelle Hotel from September 15 to 25.

Canadian consul general Audri Mukhopadhyay told the reception on Wednesday evening that agro-food accounted for a major part of Canada’s exports to Vietnam.

Canada’s two-way merchandise trade with Vietnam has increased steadily over the past decade, and now stands more than four times greater than in 2000. Nanji said the Canada-Vietnam bilateral trade reached an all-time high of more than US$1.43 billion in 2010, with that country’s exports registering over US$264 million.

Last year saw Canada’s merchandise imports from Vietnam exceed US$1.17 billion worth of textiles, manufactured articles, footwear, machinery and mechanical appliances, and animal products.

Nanji said besides agro-food and agriculture, Canadian companies had found opportunities in other sectors in Vietnam, including education and training, forestry, information and communication technologies (ICT), machinery and mechanical appliances, and base metals.

Creating a Business in 5 Easy Steps

Many people, who decide to start a business, often have no idea where to begin or what steps to take. However, we’ve devised a set of 5 general steps that will set your business on a path to success. We will cover topics such as naming your business, obtaining web hosting, establishing a business space with an online fax service, legal structuring, and provide you tips on how to obtain more clients.

1. Your Businesses Name

The first impression your business will make on the public is its name. When future business owners sit down to create their business name, they often spend too much time trying to come up with the perfect name. This is a mistake. It’s not necessary to spend a lot of time on this because it can always be changed in the future. Just make sure that your business name is unique, easy to spell, and has a simple pronunciation.

2. Getting a Domain Name

Once you have your business name, setting up a website is a good idea.  To setup your website, you will need to have a domain name.  Ideally, your domain should be the name of your business or something that tells people what you do.  Once you have a domain name, you should go to a web-hosting site and check for availability.  If the name is available, then you should look at any additional customizations that you want to add to your domain.  For example, some of these customizations can include bandwidth, private registration, and variations of the domain.  After you fully customize your domain, simply pay and the domain becomes your “web property”.

3. Setting Up Your Business Space

Once you have the domain and the website is in development, you need to start setting up your business space.  To setup your business space properly, you will need a business phone line, a business address, and a business fax number.  When first starting a business, many people setup their personal and business space as one.  This is fine, but if you ever want to move or separate the business from the personal then you may have some problems. The most common examples include business document reprinting, legal document editing, and client information loss. In addition to the physical space, you will need a virtual space. More specifically, your business will need to setup an email inbox. There are two ways to do this. You can go to a free email website such as Gmail, Yahoo or Hotmail. The other option is to direct your emails to your web-hosting site.

4. Forming a Limited Liability Company

When you thought about starting a business, you probably thought briefly about legal protection and benefits. One of the most common business legal structure that people choose is a Limited Liability Company (LLC). Some of the benefits of becoming an LLC include favorable tax treatment and limited liability.  When your company becomes an LLC, it’s eligible for an Employer Identification Number, which allows you to open a business bank account, take out a loan, and buy insurance.  There are other legal structures that may fit your needs better than an LLC. These structures include sole proprietorships, limited partnerships, general partnerships, and corporations.

5. Networking

Every new business must work hard to get clients.  A strategy that is used by many people is email marketing.  To do this type of marketing, you can get an email marketing service like GetResponse or MailChimp.  The prices will vary depending on what you want.  It’s recommended that you compare a few services before you buy, so that you may receive the best service for the best price.

After you have worked through these 5 easy steps, you should be set on a path that will allow your business to flourish and become successful.
