Online trading floor is a booster for Vietnam's lychee consumption post COVID-19.
E-commerce is becoming very popular in many countries around the world thanks to its advantages in areas such as time savings, convenient transactions, and cost optimisation while the traditional ways of introducing products can take a long time to reach the desired market, leading to higher costs and reduced quality. Therefore, the application of e-commerce in business activities is an indispensable and practical trend in Vietnam. It can be seen that e-commerce platforms have brought positive results to many enterprises, especially for those of small and medium sizes. It allows them to reach customers outside of their own geographic region.

The potential for e-commerce development in Vietnam is undeniable. However, there is a real inequity in cross-border online transactions between imports and export with individual customers. Vietnamese customers are buying online goods and services from abroad more than foreign customers are buying online products from Vietnam. The majority of Vietnamese consumers, especially younger generations, are now fond of shopping on websites such as Amazon.com, eBay.com, etc.
