According to CRI’s analysis, Vietnam features a low concentration in the fertilizer market, with local companies accounting for about 70% of the market share. Based on the overall revenue of Vietnam’s fertilizer market in 2020, the top five companies accounted for about 28% of the market. Major fertilizer producers in the Vietnam market are adopting various strategies such as expansion and partnerships to increase their market share.
According to CRI’s analysis, in recent years, Vietnam’s fertilizer exports have exceeded 1 million tons per year, while fertilizer imports have also exceeded 1 million tons.
The main varieties of fertilizers exported from Vietnam are ammonium sulfate, phosphate diamine, NPK, etc. The Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, South Korea, etc. are the main export markets of Vietnam’s fertilizers.
At the same time, every year Vietnam imports more than 1 million tons of fertilizers, among which, ammonium sulfate is the most imported. Currently, China is the largest supplier of fertilizers to Vietnam, accounting for nearly 50% of the country’s imports.
According to CRI’s analysis, despite the impact of COVID-19 on Vietnam’s economy, Vietnam’s fertilizer industry still showed growth in 2020.

Although the demand for fertilizers in Vietnam in 2020 was adversely affected by extreme weather conditions, in general, the business situation was good, with the leading companies showing significant growth in business performance. The most popular distribution channels in the country include distributor system, regional company system and authoritative purchasing.
Fertilizer’s price in Vietnam’s market showed a fluctuating trend in 2020, increasing in the second half of the year.
