The Vietnam waste management market reached approximately USD 6.42 Billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.60% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of around USD 12.16 Billion by 2034.
Vietnam ranks among the top ten countries globally in terms of plastic pollution, generating over 8,000 tons of plastic waste daily (WWF Viet Nam, 2021). The country faces a significant challenge with the consumption of single-use plastics, leading to approximately 75% of solid waste, including plastics, being mismanaged or improperly disposed of. Only a mere 30% of plastic waste is recycled, exacerbating the issue as plastics make up 80% of marine waste in Vietnam. To combat this pressing issue, the Vietnamese Government formulated a national action plan targeting marine plastic debris until 2030. In support of this initiative, UNDP has also assisted in developing and executing an integrated waste and plastic management (IWPM) program in the country.
Moreover, intelligent waste bins are a notable trend in the market. Waste bins equipped with sensors can oversee waste levels and improve collection routes, leading to reduced operational expenses and emissions. Furthermore, the utilisation of big data and analytics to oversee and control waste streams enhances efficiency and decision-making, consequently driving the market expansion.
