Apparel and footwear in 2024: The big picture
In 2024, apparel in Vietnam is set to experience positive growth rates in both retail volume and current value terms, while footwear is expected to record falling retail volume sales along with retail current value growth. Volume growth rates are likely to be hampered by inflation and an unstable economic outlook, caused by ongoing wars in different parts of the world.
2024 key trends
In 2024, key trends recorded in apparel and footwear in Vietnam have included innovative and sustainable products, the rise of e-commerce and online platforms, and the start of the penetration of artificial intelligence (AI) in the fashion industry. First, Vietnam attended the 26th United Nations Climate Change conference (COP26), and stated that achieving net zero emissions by 2050 was an inevitable development goal for the world, which will be achieved mainly through a strong energy transition and low emissions developments.
Competitive landscape
In 2024, apparel and footwear in Vietnam is expected to continue to be dominated by unbranded and counterfeit products, mainly due to low prices and wide distribution. However, in the last three years, fast fashion brands such as Uniqlo, H&M, and Cotton On have received significant attention from Vietnamese consumers, due to their high brand reputation and wide range of products and designs from which consumers can choose.
Retailing developments
In 2024, live-streaming has remained a popular way for companies to reach and interact with customers in Vietnam. Brands such as Uniqlo, Canifa, and Yody often offer special discounts of up to 50% within live-streams to attract people buying through these sessions.
