Vietnam Maintains Its Position As The Third-Largest Rice Export Partner In Singapore

0/5
(0 vote)

In the first half of 2025, Vietnam continued to assert its vital role on the global rice export map by maintaining its position as the third-largest rice supplier to the Singaporean market. With key product lines such as white rice, milled fragrant rice, and glutinous rice, Vietnamese rice holds a significant market share in the island nation—despite increasing competitive pressure from traditional exporters like India, Thailand, and Japan.

White Rice – Leading Product Group in Export Value

White rice continues to be the top-performing rice product exported from Vietnam to Singapore, reaching SGD 38.6 million in the first half of 2025—an increase of 11.9% compared to the same period last year. This product accounts for 29.6% of Singapore’s white rice import market share, placing Vietnam as the second-largest supplier in this category, just behind India.

Fragrant Rice and Glutinous Rice: Vietnam Dominates Market Share

In addition to its strength in white rice, Vietnam is also the leading supplier of two other key rice categories in Singapore:

  • Milled/Husked Fragrant Rice: Reached SGD 15.5 million, accounting for 57% of market share

  • Glutinous Rice: Reached SGD 4.7 million, accounting for 61% of market share

Although the import value from Vietnam slightly adjusted due to fluctuations in export prices, Vietnamese rice continues to lead in both segments in terms of market share.

Impact of Export Prices and Market Conditions

In the first half of 2025, Singapore’s total rice imports from Vietnam reached SGD 60.9 million—a decrease of 17.1% compared to the same period last year. The primary reason was a decline in Vietnam’s average rice export price, which dropped by 18.4% to approximately USD 517.5 per ton. However, stable supply and consistently high quality have enabled Vietnam to maintain its market share in Singapore.

Singapore – A Stable and Promising Market for Vietnamese Rice

While the Singaporean market does not fluctuate significantly in volume, it remains highly open and demands strict quality standards. According to the Vietnam Trade Office in Singapore, ongoing efforts to advance a bilateral trade agreement on rice between the two countries could pave the way for long-term stability and expanded opportunities for Vietnamese rice in this market.
